Verdict
Youlbesolucky, Sevens Delight and Fountain Crumble look the three against the field in the finale with the vote going to the last named. A gallant second behind Youlbesolucky last time out Fountain Crumble has a great opportunity of reversing the form this time around as his rival carries a penalty for his win. And the fact that she was only half a length behind that day she should be able to get her head in front this time. Of the others Sevens Delight looks the most interesting after finishing third of thirteen at Uttoxeter on her debut and with improvement likely she can figure in the first three again here. But for the winner we return to Fountain Crumble.
