      Verdict

      Bollin Margaret arrives with a 5lb penalty for completing a double at Ripon but her rider's claim will aid her cause. The three-year-old BABINDI has been narrowly beaten in both starts this season and appeared unlucky at Newmarket last month. She was beaten a nose at Ripon in a race that turned into a sprint and can make amends. Topanticipation looked ideally suited by this trip and fast ground when close-up in third at Chepstow while Basilicata didn't get the run of the race at Doncaster. Rock Of Fame has changed stables and returns after a long break while Dromquinna hasn't been quite getting home over this trip, though this easy track will help.
