      Verdict

      Mark Johnston has won two of the last four renewals but Triple Dip was a disappointing favourite over a longer trip at Beverley last time. SERENE BEAUTY (NAP) makes more appeal as she was narrowly beaten at Haydock on her handicap debut when six lengths clear of the rest. That looks stronger form than Shasag's victory in a maiden at Wolverhampton and the Godolphin filly gets the vote. Polar Eyes finished closer when fourth over track and trip last month and is preferred to the returning pair Some Site and Rainbow Beauty but Belle Travers is probably capable of better than she showed on her reappearance at Pontefract.
