    Verdict

    The progressive MADEEH notched a four-timer over the extended 1m4f at Newcastle with his latest success. This looks less competitive and, despite a further 5lb rise, the longer trip is not a problem. El Salvaje finished closer upped to 1m4f at Lingfield last time and looks the main danger to the selection though Raymond may do better back on this surface and is preferred to Ship Of The Fen.
