      Verdict

      Divine Libra has placed in both starts since winning over track and trip in July but is now 6lb higher. ROMAN DRAGON also scored over course and distance in the same month and, having been missed out by only a short-head back here last time, he gets another chance. Oso Rapido was runner-up at Thirsk last week and Glorious Angel found one too good at Carlisle while Dora Penny is back on a winning mark if rediscovering her best.
