In depth
Verdict
Just an ordinary affair to bring proceedings to a close and Frankskips looks the one to beat ahead of Seal Of Office, Sinamatella and Voice Mail. The Brooke Sanders-trained Frankskips has enjoyed a profitable campaign on the all-weather winning a maiden over this trip at Lingfield and running a close fifth in a fair event on a return visit to the Surrey track earlier in the month. Seal Of Office has shown some respectable form on the all-weather this winter but may ideally prefer a little further while Sinamatella has claims on the pick of last year's form but, along with Arjay, may need the outing. Voice Mail has been knocking on the door of late and shouldn't be underestimated from a decent draw.
