      Verdict

      This is wide-open though Liamba’s recent placed efforts have been over shorter trips at Southwell and Mansfield’s recent third here came over 6f. Viola Park is now 6lb higher than when scoring at Kempton earlier while Waqt was beaten at the same track having finished ahead of Shamlan when winning at Lingfield before that. The King's Steed is back on a winning mark and posted a better effort last time but NARALSAIF was beaten only a neck over track and trip last week and Derek Shaw’s mare gets another chance racing off the same mark today.
