In depth
Verdict
Infiniti won six times last year but has struggled this season but Cherry Cola is a consistent sort at this level, though she has nothing in hand over Smokey Malone on their 1-2 at Yarmouth back in May. Kempton winner CLUB MANAGER ran in snatches when a beaten favourite at Chelmsford earlier this month but he should win this if on his best behaviour and handling the switch of surface.
