      Verdict

      Johnny Splash scored easily over track and trip back in September but has been raised 9lb for his trouble. MONARCH MAID finished ahead of Cardinal when a close-up sixth here last time and may come good again with Shelley Birkett's allowance helping her cause today. Billy Red pops-up at this level on occasion but Argent Touch is rated 6lb higher back on the all-weather and Howyadoingnotsobad has not won since 2012.
