Verdict

Two of the last four renewals have gone to a Keith Dalgleish-trained runner and NEW LEASE OF LIFE looks to have leading claims. He finished ahead of Rise To Glory when third over 6f here last time and the course and distance winner and can race off the same mark today. Saxonette was well ahead of Tadalavil when going close at Ayr recently and has the beating of Arch Walker on collateral form while Irish raider Dylan Express was winning for the first time in 17 starts when successful at Dundalk last month and makes little appeal off a 6lb higher mark.
