Verdict

Lady Of Luxury had Rita Levi around three lengths behind when runner-up to Power Drive with Magi Gal and Rodeo Drive well beaten. The latter has run well subsequently but has a lot of ground to make up on collateral form with the winner. Never Back Down has had eight starts without winning since his last victory and is still 8lb higher. El C Wells hasn't won yet but ran very well behind Fox Leicester three weeks ago while Kartayaz, a winner here in November and on his latest start, is another to consider despite an 8lb rise. BURREN SONG caught the eye on his handicap debut last month and though having only his fifth start is related to plenty of winners and his rider's claim can enable him to get off the mark.
