        Verdict

        Ritasun edges this at the weights as he returns to the Flat after a spell over hurdles but has only won on the all-weather so far. Rita's Man continues to struggle and Miningrocks has not been at his best recently. Neither has MARAAKIB for that matter but he’s tumbled no less than 22lb down the handicap since the start of the season and the drop into plating company could spark a revival. Kitsey is another on the drop but ran poorly in a seller last time.
