        Verdict

        Linda Ramsden may have been out of luck with her runners at this meeting so far, but she can put the record straight with Polygonal, who is fancied to hold all comers today. Possibly with the lightly raced Roehampton giving him the most to do. Blue Sky Thinking and Courageous Duke are regulars in races like this and should again go well for those willing to give them another chance. The latter has a fair bit to find with the selection though and will do well to reverse the Newmarket form on these terms. Colisay does throw a little spanner in the works, as he is a tough and consistent performer that can be relied upon to give his all. He does however, have a little to prove regarding the trip and may be best saved for another day. Which leaves the way open for Polygonal to land his second success on these shore since his arrival from France.
