        Verdict

        This is unlikely to be the strongest betting heat of the day and one that will not live too long in the memory. True North has a big advantage on the official figures for the race and will take all the beating. However, Vicars Destiny rid herself of the maiden tag in good style at Wetherby last time and represents the best value in the race. Her confidence will have been buoyed by that performance. Olla Rolla is best of the rest.
