Verdict

SATCHVILLE FLYER twice made all over 6f here before being caught on the line over that trip at Kempton. He's never raced over the minimum but has enough pace and can get back to winning ways. Scoreline has taken well to Tapeta at Wolverhampton and gained his second success in a claimer there earlier this month, a day after being beaten in a handicap. Arctic Lynx was behind in that former event and looks held despite scoring there last month while Sir Geoffrey, despite winning 14 of his 100 races, hasn't been in the best of form lately. The veteran Billy Red has a similar strike-rate - 16 from 123 - but arrives in winning form having scored on his favourite track at Lingfield.
