Verdict
The bottom four in this are all racing from out of the handicap and are difficult to fancy. It's a long time since Hill Forts Gloria showed any worthwhile form while Monroe Park has had plenty of chances. Owner Occupier is going backwards and Warsaw Pact isn't getting any younger and Dom Lukka was a long way behind third Alaccordion over a longer trip here last time. MARIE DEJA LA is no world-beater and can be a little quirky but she won easily enough over course and distance last month and a double looks likely if she's in the same mood. Classical Twist is back over a more suitable trip and preferred to Plumpton third Al Amaan of the others.
