Verdict

STREETS AHEAD (4) resumed from a long break over a mile here and gave a sight over the final stages when holding on for third. Will strip far fitter and expected to take catching again. CALLED THROUGH (1) is a 15-start maiden who ran on hard to just miss two back, then again found the line albeit safely held latest. Freshened and well placed with the claim. Will be winding up strongly. JUST BOBBY (2) had his first start at the mile two back and was runner-up behind an impressive winner, then last run raced on pace and was runner-up again. Close to a win and looks a leading chance. LIGHT WORK (10) finished third last time over 6f at this track. First try at the mile and can give a sight. CLIMBEVERYMOUNTAIN (6) rates highly and is among the better chances.
