Verdict

Shaun Lycett looks to have found a good opportunity for MALAYSIAN BOLEH (NAP) to end his losing run. He's won four times over this trip on the all-weather and is 5lb lower than successful over 6f here just over a year ago, not including Callum Shepherd's claim. Misu Pete couldn't complete the hat-trick at Kempton earlier this month off today's mark while Alhella and Wink Oliver are proving disappointing. Cookie Ring is preferred to Nasri and The Happy Hammer of the others.
