Scathach should be prominent in a race that lacks obvious early pressure. AERIAL IMPACT (4) is a local gelding making his debut from a wide gate after showing ability at the trials. A wet track won't be an issue, and he is in the right yard to make an immediate impact. Follow the market moves. SHEZABITDIRTY (9) was close up in her only public trial to date, and from a good draw, she should make a bright start to her career, especially if there is some money for her. ACTIONBELLE (8) won the latest of her 2 public trials, and she would only need a touch of luck from a tricky gate to be very competitive in this. CALLIDONTA (13) cannot be risked. Each way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Actionbelle each way.
