Verdict

SAVANNAH SMILES got back to winning ways at Lingfield 19 days ago and can follow up despite a 4 lb rise, with her excellent course record a major asset. Punchbowl Flyer arrives bidding for a hat-trick and is another with an impressive record at this track, so he is likely to pose the biggest threat if coping with the drop back to 5f. Dragon God went closer than ever when second here last time and is also respected.

1	A 3-time course winner who arrives bidding for a hat-trick after winning over 6f here and at Ffos Las in June. A further 2 lb rise looks fair and he has quickly built up a good relationship with this apprentice, so must be considered, though it's worth noting he's yet to win at 5f. 2nd Pick 1 Punchbowl Flyer (Ire) Jockey: Alexandra Egan Trainer: John O'shea J: Alexandra Egan T: John O'shea	99	-	-	-	32%	Scratched
