      Verdict

      It’s more than six years since veteran Joe Packet last won off a mark this high but he seems to like it here so has to go on the short-list. Jashma has only won once so far, over 5f, but she’s been placed in both previous starts here. Artscape won over course and distance in June and is only 2lb higher but The Daley Express ran a shocker last time at Ffos Las having won at the Welsh track earlier. LOVE OASIS hasn’t fired in her last two but has slipped to the mark off which she went close at Catterick and Bath in July so may be worth another chance
