Verdict

INGLEBY STAR looks to have solid claims here and he can land the nightcap at the main expense of Rocketball and Angelofthenorth. Trainer Noel Wilson has his string in good form at present and this course and distance scorer looks worth another chance after a narrow defeat at Thirsk last time. He is racing right on top of his game at present and he can defy a penalty and a poor draw to resume winning ways. Rocketball is another with course and distance form but he was a little disappointing at Haydock last time in a race won by Top Bid. He does handle cut in the ground but his best form is on a faster surface and on that basis he is narrowly passed over. Angelofthenorth has not been at her best recently but she is on a fair mark and she has the best of the draw tonight. Blazing Heights is another that has the benefit of a good draw but he was behind a few of these last time and it is hard to see him reversing the form. We will stick with Ingleby Star to take the prize.
