    Verdict

    Less than a length separated Recall The Show, VAPE and Street Parade over course and distance 10 days ago. The hard-luck story that day belonged to Tony Carroll’s grey and he may come out on top this time if fully recovered from a close third at Salisbury on Sunday. The Lamplighter has been dropped a couple of pounds and that brings him into the argument on his best form but Lady Quickstep was struggling on Turf last year.
