Verdict
DION BAKER has continued in excellent form by winning four of his last five starts, including over C&D twice, and Michael Wigham's charge is tough to oppose, even with a 4lb penalty for his Yarmouth triumph. Prefer The Sister was behind him here before winning in fine style a week ago. She enters the reckoning, while Rainbow Sorbet remains unexposed on her fifth career start.
Expert View Verdict
This can go to DION BAKER, who has been in a rich vein of form, likes it here and is taken to defy a penalty turned out just five days after his most recent success. Prefer The Sister, who was back to her best when scoring over C&D last time, could be up to the task under a penalty and rates the danger ahead of Kondratiev Wave, who goes well here, has conditions in his favour and is on a competitive mark.
