      Verdict

      The front-runner Azrur could only manage third over 1m1f here last week but this shorter trip should suit. Ellaal won here in 2014 but his victory at Wolverhampton last month was his first since then. INGELBY SPRING has her first start of the year but went close at Brighton off today’s mark when last in action and Richard Fahey’s filly should be thereabouts. Outlaw Torn has won here before and is back on a winning mark while Silver Duke is fit from hurdling but has yet to win on the Flat in 17 attempts.
