RACING POST VERDICT

Little Ledgend is preferred at Worcester, edged in front of the head of our ratings on a fitness advantage and the more solid book of recent form. Idaho Fire has the strongest figure in the race and cannot be discounted, while Estacas and Play Pretend add further alternative claims to a genuinely competitive nine-runner field. Confidence in the selection is low, reflecting how tightly this one is rated between the principals.

Our Expert Tip

Play Pretend absolutely loves this track and tends to save his best performances for Worcester. He’s back on a dangerous handicap mark and looks a solid each-way play.
