Verdict

Tellmeyourstory completed a double here in mid-summer but finished a long way last in both subsequent starts. Makeen followed a victory at Thirsk with a narrow defeat here but never really got into contention when favourite at York. Natchez Trace landed a maiden handicap here and was taking on much stronger opposition at Thirsk so should be more at home here. Darvel has run poorly the last twice but POET'S MAGIC has been in very good form and can take this. John Quinn's mare won at Ayr in June and followed a comfortable success back there last month with a fine run at Epsom a few days later.
