      Verdict

      ROYAL LIBERTY is penalised for winning at Brighton but has little to fear from the other two with racecourse experience including Mountain Approach. The latter may well finish closer today but Mark Johnston’s colt is taken to go in again. Of the newcomers, Up Sticks And Go is related to five winners and preferred to Onesarnieshort and French Flyer while Squirrelheed will hopefully be better behaved today having been withdrawn at the start at Pontefract last month.
