Verdict

WARNING LIGHT (NAP) has won her last two in this grade and this lightly-raced 4-y-o makes decent appeal as she was especially impressive when running out a 4l scorer at Chelmsford recently. The Keightley yard has enjoyed a good year and is in strong form at present and the daughter of Lethal Force is taken to defy her penalty and complete an all-weather three-timer. It's How We Roll is reliable in this grade and should be in the mix once again and the Spearing charge achieved his most recent success with this talented apprentice in the saddle. Iballisticvin has an each-way shout and Bird To Love is interesting as the one unexposed runner on show.
