        Verdict

        Straight Arrow won at Wetherby last year but remains 10lb higher while Emblaze has the most recent winning form but that was at Southwell back in February. Dark Command has yet to win but was not beaten far when second at Beverley last time and Dark Crystal found only one too good over a mile here on her penultimate start. But a chance is taken on the unexposed SS VEGA, who improves with every run and was placed over 6f here on her recent handicap debut.
