        Verdict

        Shot Of Love won over track and trip though Overnight Oats wasn’t far behind in second and can reverse running. Hi Clare went close in a lower grade here but FLY ZONE is preferred making his handicap debut after placing at Wolverhampton. The form of Chealamy and Freedom Day has tapered off since winning while Ottoman Prince has struggled in handicaps so far.
