Verdict

ANDHAAR is the call in this contest with Caster Sugar and Rockfella others to monitor closely. The selection has yet to get his head infront on the turf but he has performed creditably over the course of the year and as Ed Dunlop's stable seems to be coming into some semblance of form, we will take the risk at likely odds. Caster Sugar confirmed the promise of a second at Windsor with victory at Brighton. This is a stronger race but she looks as if she should stay the extra distance. Rockfella stays this trip and having gone up 3lb for a recent success at the track, he is sure to be popular with the locals. Tahkeem was unfancied when landing a maiden at the course though battled on gamely to score. Bomber Brown looks to have lost his way but his early season promise still remains in the memory. Sam Sharp is gradually dropping down the weights after a series of unplaced efforts off higher. Saa'Ida is persisted with in the headgear. A competitive handicap in which Andhaar is selected in the hope that the stable's good form can rub off on him this afternoon.
