Verdict

Zapper Cass landed a double last month including a defeat of Canford Bay over today’s trip at Newcastle and should be in the mix. Wiff Waff is another usually thereabouts without winning but Toni's A Star scored over track and trip earlier this year though never figured off today’s higher mark last time. David's Beauty saves her best for Chepstow and has just the one win in 17 attempts on the all-weather but DANDY’S BEANO slipped down the weights last year and Kevin Ryan’s filly gets a speculative vote off her current mark dropping back down in class on her reappearance.
