Verdict
Saga Diamond makes her handicap debut having failed to quicken when sent over an extra two furlongs three weeks ago. That was only her fifth start and she's entitled to improve but Twistsandturns is now looking a bit high in the weights after his double at the backend of last year. SIX SILVER LANE (NAP) hasn't won since scoring here in May but has gradually dropped to a winnable mark and, with Fran Berry doing the steering, it could be his turn again. Tom Dooley is 6lb higher than his maiden all-weather victory a fortnight ago and War Room, who also has a poor strike-rate, wasn't far behind in that latter event and can't get much lower in the weights.
