        Verdict

        Both Elmejor and I Love You Baby carry penalties for their respective wins and the four-year-olds are also conceding plenty of weight to the younger horses including LEXINGTON DASH. The latter failed to land the odds when only fourth at Newcastle last time but the race is working out well, producing several subsequent winners and Richard Hannon’s colt will appreciate this longer trip. Good Time Charlie and the others with experience make less appeal with Kylla Looks and Bad At Bay preferred of the newcomers.
