      Verdict

      FLOWERS ON VENUS has been taking advantage of a mark of 87 to win similar claimers here. The hat-trick beckons for Tom Dascombe’s charge given he has plenty to spare on these terms with Major Crispies, who also won a claimer over track and trip a fortnight ago. Quatrieme Ami drops in class in a a bid to end a long losing run while Varsovian won a handicap here in February but also has plenty to find with the selection.
