    Verdict

    Roodle had struggled off higher marks before scoring at Yarmouth last week so a 6lb penalty doesn't bode well for her chances, likewise Russian Rave, who is upped 6lb for her recent win at Leicester where she had Cat Hunter well behind. Kempton winner Zing Wing is open to further improvement on her reappearance and handicap debut, but the vote goes to VALENCHA. Hughie Morrison's filly found only the well handicapped Truism too good over C&D a week ago and can go one better in what looks a less competitive contest.
