      Verdict

      There was some cut in the ground when Obama Army won at Chepstow though the latter was beaten by Eton College on soft going at Nottingham before that. But it was also heavy ground at last week’s fixture here when THEWAYTOTHESTARS (NAP) took advantage of a slide down the weights and she’s taken to defy a double penalty having won again at Windsor a couple of days ago. I'm Too Tired drops back down in trip with a shout while the ex-French gelding Lunanera debuts for new connections.
