      Verdict

      Geetanjali should go close again having escaped a penalty for winning an apprentices race at Yarmouth last week. But GERANIUM continued her good progress with a facile six-length success at Newmarket a week ago and is fancied to shrug off a 5lb penalty in this. Mulan made a winning reappearance but something went amiss at Newmarket last time while Beguiling Charm also ran a shocker recently having won at Leicester before that. Seascape wasn’t beaten far at the latter track last month having won at Salisbury earlier and is preferred of the remainder.
