        Verdict

        Zipedeedodah beat Captain Lars to land a double at Wolverhampton but steps up in class off a 5lb higher mark. Monumental Man has found one too good here on his last couple of starts but has been raised 4lb for his trouble while Waneen failed in his bid for a treble when beaten off today’s mark last time. Pearl Acclaim was narrowly beaten at Newcastle recently and can figure but nothing went right for CALYPSO CHOIR at Lingfield last time when racing wide and hampered. She’d gone close in a higher grade at Kempton before that and gets another chance in this with Adam Kirby’s presence in the saddle a positive.
