        Verdict

        Lucymai won easily over track and trip in November. She has a 10lb hike to contend with but could still figure if allowed her own way in the lead once again. The Eagle's Nest faces a tougher task as he bids for a hat-trick having landed a double over longer distances but EXCHEQUER (NAP) looks to have strong claims. He bounced back with a close-up third at Wolverhampton recently beating Loyalty and Firmdecisions in the process and can return to winning ways on only his third start for David O’Meara. Upavon was placed over 6f here last time but looks high enough in the weights.
