Verdict

Lucky Ava completed a course and distance double at the beginning of the year but is now 8lb higher than her latest success. BLACK SPARROW's only victory to date came here in August and she's now 2lb lower. Hollie Doyle can steer her home as Outcast has disappointed since scoring at Chelmsford. Marta Boy has also struggled after scoring here in April and the maiden Kim Wexler hasn't run since just touched off in a Wolverhampton handicap in October.
