Verdict
FOUR ADAAY has had a busy campaign but is holding her form well and is back on a winning mark. It would be no surprise if she enjoyed a change of luck today. Sarah's Verse, also back on a winning mark, will enjoy conditions and Gustav Graves was only beaten a neck when well backed at Wolverhampton earlier this month. Speedacus is back over his best trip and is another who like handle the surface and Fortunate Star is another mud-lover but Buddy's Beauty has been raised a further 3lb since just failing to complete a hat-trick at Nottingham.
