    Verdict

    Poet's Dawn completed a double when landing his fourth victory on the track at the last meeting where he made all and had a bit in hand. A 3lb rise is nullified by his rider's claim so another big run is expected. Three Saints Bay has won twice around here but is on a long losing run and only dropping slowly in the weights. Widaad landed a 7f Newmarket handicap but couldn't quite handle a 7lb higher mark on soft ground at Haydock on Thursday. Dual all-weather winner Fox Power has never won on Turf but is gradually dropping to a winnable mark as he showed at Newmarket last time. POET'S LADY (NAP) has produced her best form on soft ground and ran very well in a Class 2 handicap at Ascot three weeks ago despite missing the break. She still has some progress in her and can take this.
