In depth

Verdict

Nodsasgoodasawink is still 8lb higher than when scoring at Catterick in April but is usually thereabouts at this level. MARVE has form in better races this season and is back over his winning trip so gets the nod ahead of the less-exposed Keepherlit and last month’s Redcar winner Odd Socks Havana. Ireland's Eye may be the pick of the remainder with Naughty Ana a disappointing favourite last month at Hamilton.
