    Verdict

    It was good to see Wor Lass return to form this week but she has plenty on at the weights and Anna Hesketh, who has partnered her to success on her last six victories, is replaced here by Garry Whillans. She's likely to go well but Iain Jardine fields two strong contenders in Neuf Des Coeurs and STONEHAM. Jockey bookings suggest the former is the stable preferred but she's yet to oblige over a trip this far whereas the selection has no such stamina concerns and could represent some value. A useful dual purpose performer, her latest run was too bad to be true and a run of three previous successes, two of which were achieved at this venue, afford her a major chance. Maraweh is a talented handicap hurdler who would need to be taken seriously if significant market support comes his way.
