Verdict

EVASIVE POWER won over 7f on soft ground at Brighton but should handle the drop back in trip with the going likely to be very testing again. Selby's Pride ran his best race for a while when second at Hamilton 10 days ago but Apache Star was below par at Bath last month. Willingly has a talented 7lb claimer on board and Ray Vonn also has claims with Yarmouth winner Primrose Maid preferred to the hat-trick seeking Concierge of the remainder.
