      Verdict

      Becky Smith has won several races on THE RESDEV WAY and Micky Hammond’s stayer is back over his best trip today. Infiniti is 3-3 since returning to the Flat and should go close again, despite a further penalty, but Sufi’s appearances on the Flat in recent years have been few and far between. Clifftop Heaven has won over 2m on the all-weather but First Blood looks held on the form book.
