      Verdict

      Amarillo Gold beat SWEET FORTUNE when scoring at Brighton but the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms with an apprentice’s allowance further helping her cause and had won over track and trip on her penultimate start. Zakram went close at Kempton when last racing over a mile while Man Made Of Smoke steps up in trip having been narrowly beaten over 7f at Leicester last month.
