Verdict

DANCING POPPY gets the pick here over Baltimore Clipper and Zaffature. The selection showed improved form last time at Musselburgh in a race won by Pallantes Cross. The horse that finished second in that race Mister Angry could boost the form in the 1.45, and if he goes in then that would fuel the confidence behind Mick Channon's filly. Baltimore Clipper could be the fly in the ointment as he ran with promise on his debut at Newmarket. He carried his head awkwardly that day which suggested he was very green and there should be more to come. Marco Botti's newcomer Zaffature appeals most of the others as the trainer does well in these type of events, so any market support could be significant. Marafong and Brasingaman Eric are others worth some consideration, but Dancing Poppy makes more appeal and gets the vote.
