    Verdict

    Southwell winner Back Burner, Conquestadim and Ifan have all been successful on the all-weather recently and Modem recorded his only win so far on the Polytrack in December. Bold Duke landed a double in September but remains 10lb higher despite a couple of subsequent poor efforts while Aldborough needs to improve stepping up in trip for his handicap debut. CALM ATTITUDE has been raised 9lb after making a winning return over 1m2f here, her fourth straight victory. But she was untroubled to score by over three lengths last time so Rae Guest's progressive filly is taken to continue winning ways in this.
