Verdict

C&D winner Solicitor is 10lb higher today and is returning from a lengthy absence, as is Satwa Dream, who has so far only raced on soft ground. Veiled Applause may also appreciate some cut, while Doctor Zhivago has produced his best form over a mile so far. Saint Thomas is 9lb higher than when winning here in August, but SHARAKTI has been unlucky not to score again in a couple of starts since winning at Yarmouth last month and it could be third time lucky for Alan McCabe's charge here.
