        Verdict

        TROPICS has been in fine form over the winter and was winning for the third time since December when successful at Chelmsford last time. The return to 6f is no problem and Dean Ivory’s charge can go in again in his current form. Raven's Lady went close at Wolverhampton when last seen in January and is preferred over today’s distance to the returning Boundsy, who landed a double over 5f in September. Mazzini and Pipers Note could both figure if at their best as they return to action but Fibresand specialist Hammer Gun faces a stiff task after winning at Southwell last time.
