      In depth

      Verdict

      SMOKEY MALONE won on the Turf course here last time and today’s task doesn’t look much tougher raised only 2lb. Forge Valley Lad was in good form on the all-weather before struggling at Sandown while Maxine is better than a comeback run at Nottingham suggests. Galactic Glow steps up from 7f having slid down the weights.
