Verdict

An open contest with LOCKDOWN LASS getting the nod. She’s raced over course and distance twice this year and won on both occasions, including from today’s high draw back in July. Mister Sox won on soft ground at Catterick last week while King's Code and Thunder Roar have also won over 7f this season. Waleyfa has scored three times over longer trips on the all-weather while Roman Dynasty, He's A Gentleman and Ring Of Gold are all looking to end a frustrating run of placed efforts.
