Verdict

Mark's Choice was beaten a length at Haydock last week and is not out of this having finished a long way in front of Lovin when scoring at Ripon back in April. The latter has undergone wind surgery since and headgear is also applied today while Golden Parade carries 6lb extra after winning a lower grade sprint at Wolverhampton recently. COOLAGH MAGIC also has something to find with Mark's Choice on earlier form but Richard Fahey’s charge was placed over the extended 5f here last time with Abate behind and may finally open his account on Turf having won off today’s mark on the all-weather at the start of the year.
