Verdict

BIT OF A QUIRKE is a real track specialist having won six times here and from much higher marks. She's back to form judging by a fine run at Ripon and victory number seven looks a strong possibility. Rocket Dancer led at the furlong pole and ran on strongly to beat Motarajel a length here with Jackamundo well beaten. The runner-up, who finished strongly, will be 5lb better off and can reverse the form. Mr Zee reappeared with an encouraging run at Leicester while Point Louise is back on the same mark as when last successful.
