      Verdict

      LUCKY LODGE has been unfortunate not to get his head back in front recently and was beaten only a neck at Newcastle last week when well ahead of Duke Cosimo. But he looks to have an easier chance today dropping down in class and Tony Brittain’s charge gets the vote in this lesser company. Steelriver finished in front of The Groove when placed at Wolverhampton just four days ago but is a rare winner nowadays while Wiff Waff has recorded all three of his wins so far over the minimum trip and both of It Must Be Faith’s victories last year came in amateurs' races.
