        Verdict

        Dorothy's Friend can regain the winning thread although Theatre and Arresting could prove tough opposition. Two miles at Haydock proved a tough reintroduction for Roger Charlton's charge but he had a progressive enough profile as a three-year-old and can bounce back. Arresting is often well punted but still for our money is yet to conclusively prove that he stays this far. Theatre carried a welter-burden behind Quedex at Kempton last month. The stable are in fair nick at the moment and the horse should at least relish the drop back in trip and the prevailing fast ground. Red Scorpion disappointed at Redcar when he had every chance of scoring. Priarie Falcon has ability and can stay this far. Dorothy's Friend can bounce back today and he can take the finale for Roger Charlton.
