    In depth

    Verdict

    Lord Of The Lodge has won off a higher mark in the past and ran well in a conditions race at Wolverhampton a week ago while the front-runner Larado had the measure of Zip when scoring over track and trip though the latter was less than a length behind. NOISY NIGHT was having his first outing of last year when going close over 6f here in December. He landed a hat-trick in 2021 and can return to wining ways back over this longer trip. Air To Air and Raising Sand have both struggled since winning on Turf last year.
