Verdict
Susanna's Prospect gets the vote in this competitive handicap with Red Current and Baby Dordan rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Mountain Cat last time out and he races off the same mark here. Nominal improvement should make him tough to beat and he looks the one to be on. Red Current rates the main danger on her best form but she disappointed last time out. However this faster ground should suit and she should be watched in the market. Baby Dordan is game and consistent and is sure to run his race as he was a fair fourth behind Oscarshall last time out but he looks weighted up to his best. Astroangel is from a shrewd yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market while Isobel Rose is dangerously well handicaped on her best form and is another to note in the market but for the winner we are happy to return to Susanna's Prospect .
