    Verdict

    SOLANNA will likely be raised by more than today’s 5lb penalty having romped home by five lengths at Yarmouth last week. He’s won three times on the Polytrack and looks the one to beat back on this surface. Villalobos scored over track and trip in March but failed to cope with a 5lb rise last time and How Hard Can It Be is preferred having gone close here the last twice. Clay has yet to win in 15 attempts.
