Verdict

This looks a modest finale and DEVIL'S DYKE is fancied to recoup losses incurred when sent off favourite at Worcester last month. He may have found the ground too lively that day and had gone close over this track and trip earlier - he has the beating of Acapulco Bay on the form book. Speed Steed runs over hurdles for the first time in a year but was just beaten over 2m on the Polytrack earlier this month and Polstar has already won at Doncaster and Taunton this year.
