Verdict

MARK ANTHONY found only one too good in similar underfoot conditions over a mile here on his penultimate start. He gets the token vote in a poor handicap. Pose showed a bit more when runner-up in a Windsor seller last time but Bold Diva was still beaten eight lengths despite finishing second at Wolverhampton last month. Rafella and Crucis Abbey have both tumbled down the weights but have yet to show any signs of a resurgence and the remainder are even harder to fancy.
