Verdict

While the form of Vilnius looks solid he is clearly vulnerable from marks higher than the 56 he won from at Hamilton and we will oppose him here with BIDRUMA. Mike Murphy's filly remains on the same mark as when trying to make all over 7f at Lingfield last time. She is dropped back in trip for this, which looks a plus and from a good draw she is taken to see out her effort right to the line. Itsthursdayalready has been in decent form of late without winning. He handles the Polytrack well enough but the same fate may await tonight, although a 2lb drop will help. Miss Polly Plum goes well at this trip and has strong frame claims despite remaining a maiden after 13 races. Bathwick Xaara, Music Lover and Freedom Pass look high enough in the weights, with the last-named having the most scope for improvement, though a chance is taken on Bidruma. (Jonathan Doidge)
