Verdict

LIONHEART is up 5lb for finishing second on his reappearance at Lingfield but todays' extra furlong is expected to suit and he gets the nod. Magical Rose is another who should have come on for her comeback outing on the Polytrack and she makes more appeal than Wolverhampton winner Mumeyez, who disappointed at Yarmouth last time. Swift Cedar is another with scope for improvement while Sennockian Star went close on his latest start at Lingfield, though this is tougher. East Texas Red is expected to handle today's likely going better than Aint Got A Scooby and makes most appeal of the remainder.
