        Verdict

        Cross Of Lorraine arrives in good form having scored over C&D last week. However, a 6lb penalty and his previous below par efforts on soft ground are off-putting and a chance is taken on PITKIN handling the surface. He's scored twice on Polytrack and was placed over track and trip back in May. It was fast going when Tahitian Princess won at Hamilton last month and I Got You Babe is still without a win, though she's gone close on more than one occasion. Lady Lube Rye registered her only win back in 2009 and looks to have place claims at best.
