Verdict

The first division of a low-grade lottery with a token vote going to LUCKY DI on her recent second at Lingfield having tumbled 13lb down the weights since October. Encapsulated won off today’s mark at Chelmsford in February while Bogsnog won over 6f here in March and Fossa was successful at Southwell in the same month. Viola Park was beaten only a length when last at this venue and Loveatfirstsight slips further down the handicap.
