        Verdict

        Quite a few of these are out of form, but potentially well handicapped. ROYAL MELODY might not be the best-treated in the race, but she is in good heart and that could count for a lot. Luduamf , Greyfriarschorista and Lady Gwhinnyvere are respected, but the biggest danger could come from Coachella , who has dropped to a feasible mark and will get plenty of assistance from the saddle.
