      Verdict

      Lihou beat Bellagio Man when returning to winning ways at Wolverhampton and the latter had earlier beaten Mighty Power when scoring over 6f here. Papa Don't Preach popped up at 16/1 over track and trip last month with Army Of India back in fourth but PAY FOR ADAAY (NAP) looks worth sticking with. The latter easily defied a penalty when making all dropped down to today’s trip at Southwell and further progress looks likely now handicapping
