Verdict

With her stable and rider going well, HIGH ON LIGHT (NAP) can complete the hat-trick. An impressive winner over the course and distance last month, she followed up under a penalty at Musselburgh and though raised by the same amount again will be difficult to beat. There will be support for Tamujin after a very close third at Bath but he's still a maiden after 39 career starts while Adherence had a spin over hurdles last month without losing his maiden tag. Bridey's Lettuce is yet another without a victory, though he led at this trip before fading over 1m6f at Redcar. Best Boy has generally competed at a slightly higher level though over shorter trips.
