In depth

Verdict

Despite his huge weight, Six Silver Lane would be a popular choice to complete a hat-trick if getting a run from his reserve spot. But in his likely absence this looks an opportunity for the once high-class SIX OF HEARTS (NAP) to gain his first victory since 2011 after showing there was still plenty of life in him when just failing to hold the late thrust of Political Party here a fortnight ago. Eretara has never won in 29 starts but came closest when beaten a length here early last month. Miss Temple has been racing in sprints and this is an unknown trip but Elusive In Paris has won over the course and distance, though arrives out of form. Busy Bush puts in the occasional decent effort and can hardly go any lower in the weights.
