        Verdict

        None of these inspire much confidence including LADY ARGENTUM after finishing last over 7f at Doncaster recently. But her earlier placed efforts over today's trip is the best form on show and Richard Fahey's filly gets the nod. Bond's Tricks has been thereabouts without looking like winning of late while Sensational Secret would have a chance on her debut second at Beverley though she has failed to match that form since. It's hard to make a case for the remainder unless Emballer is better than she has shown so far.
