    Verdict

    Lost All Alone, Palais Polaire and Jessica Wigmo all finished in the money last time and all three look sure to feature here. Preference is for Lost All Alone. The selection showed improved form on his second run back from a break to run second here last time despite being carried across the track by the eventual winner. It may not have affected the result but it certainly didn't do him any favours and he should go close. Jessica Wigmo is running well at present and is hard to rule out but Palais Polaire is still searching for her first win and this is a little offputting. Nikki Bea has run well here in the past and isn't dismissed but Batchworth Blaise, another in-form runner, may be more effective over further. Plenty go to post with claims but Lost All Alone gets our vote.
