Verdict

Both Spreadable and Plucky Dip carry penalties for recent wins at Lingfield and this track respectively. Marmarus also scored over course and distance last month and is up 5lb while Derbyshire is another recent winner over track and trip but could only manage fourth at Ayr off today's higher mark last time. Artistic Queen followed a win at Lingfield with a modest effort at Yarmouth and SHINGLE (NAP) makes more appeal. The latter was doing his best work at the finish when runner-up over 6f last week and this extra furlong should suit.
