Verdict
Back on the Polytrack for the remainder of today's card and a handful of the usual suspects line up here. Bonnie Prince Blue beat both Waterloo Dock and Athaakeel here in March and should figure, but Dvinsky appears to have gone off the boil recently. Elhamri can win at this level but hasn't been at his best lately while Rio Sands has no chance on today's terms. BASLE won a claimer at Leicester last August on the only previous occasion she has raced in this company and Gay Kelleway's charge could be up to taking this on her return to action.
