      Verdict

      QUIRKY GERTIE had been threatening to win for some time and duly obliged in impressive style on soft ground at Lingfield on Saturday. She has a penalty to carry but that's almost nullified by her rider's claim and a quick double looks on the cards. Poet's Magic had shown glimpses of ability before her best run to date over this track and trip when just failing to concede 12lb to Lady Morpheus. A similar run would see her in the firing-line while Kevin Ryan sends recent acquisition Alotabottle on the long journey from North Yorkshire with Danny Tudhope having his only booked ride of the meeting. Laxmi ran poorly at Chepstow and has been disappointing while Crimson Kiss was engaged in the 5.35 at Sandown yesterday.
