      Verdict

      DIVEA is penalised for her recent win over track and trip but she scored with plenty in hand. She's worth sticking with up against today's more exposed rivals. The Blue Dog may prove best of them as she drops back into a more suitable grade, though Yasir is not without a chance on his earlier length defeat over 1m4f here. Lacey has struggled off higher marks since winning over course and distance in December but Travel made the frame on the Fibresand at Southwell before disappointing at Lingfield last time.
