      Verdict

      Maratha won at Wolverhampton earlier but finished behind close-up fourth Nonios at the same track last time when Laqab was well beaten. Thaqaffa had the measure of Ourmullion when landing a hat-trick at Wolverhampton but has been raised a further 4lb while Maestro Mac has gone up the same amount after winning at the same track. Captain Pugwash won a lower grade race here recently but SHAMROKH denied King Kevin a treble when scoring over course and distance and Mick Appleby’s charge gets the nod on that form.
