      Verdict

      Placed on several occasions before scoring over track and trip last month with Alph well beaten, CALLIOPE looks capable of defying a 3lb rise up against weak opposition today. The rest of the field are all struggling for form though Longtimesincejaspr may improve on only her second outing for new connections having placed at Punchestown earlier. Cool Country was still beaten a distance when second at Kelso back in December while Oishin may do better today having returned from a lengthy absence at Sedgefield in January.
