Verdict
GERT LUSH (NAP) won off a 5lb higher mark at Goodwood last year. She led until inside the final furlong when a huge price at Newbury last time and Callum Hutchinson takes off a valuable 5lb again. Haydock winner Night Bear is preferred to stablemate Latent Heat over this trip but Newmarket fourth Albion Princess may have more scope. Zambezi Magic looks the pick of his yard’s three runners and Midnight Train also has a squeak.
