      Verdict

      Epsom Salts and Poppy Gregg are badly out of sorts and easily dismissed, while Gremlin had also been struggling until showing a bit more on his latest start at Chepstow. Rosewood Lad drops back down into a more suitable grade and has to come into the reckoning having won over today's trip at Wolverhampton in March, but LASTROSEOFSUMMER makes most appeal. She'd been in winning form over hurdles before scoring back on the Flat at Warwick last time and can follow-up in her current form.
