      Verdict

      Double Martini won at Chelmsford last time and is not out of this, despite a 4lb rise, while Quarry Beach gets a change of headgear attempting to lose her maiden tag having placed on numerous occasions. Straitouttacompton completed a double at Southwell in February but it remains to be seen if he can carry that form over to this surface raised 5lb while Duhallow Noelie doesn’t look particularly well treated travelling over from Ireland. By contrast, TREVITHICK, who does most of his racing on the all-weather, can compete off a 16lb lower mark back on Turf and looks worth another chance with a recent outing at Newcastle under his belt.
