Verdict

Whodunit made all for a comfortable success here last week but has been raised to a career-high mark on his 34th start and may struggle to complete a hat-trick. Calypso Cay made a winning debut when odds-on here last month despite signs of temperament but again looked a difficult ride when beaten a very long way at Kempton a fortnight later. Marvo has yet to win on the all-weather and though getting closer his latest effort was in a seller. TRIP SWITCH arrives in top form having won three of his last four. He's been raised 5lb for his latest victory but that doesn't look enough to prevent a hat-trick. The veteran Prince Of Thebes is another in tremendous form and can make his presence felt.
