        Verdict

        Plenty in with a chance though a 6lb rise for last week's win at Lingfield makes this a difficult task for Lutine Charlie. Forward Feline won twice over longer trips here before a poor effort at Chepstow, while Symphonic Dancer was placed in maidens at this track before her recent defeat at Nottingham. Polemica and Hawk Moth have claims but the nod goes to another C&D winner in GLENRIDDING. He's shown signs of a return to form of late and can race off a lower mark back on the all-weather.
