        Verdict

        The usual bunch of exposed and largely out of form horses arrive for a very trappy handicap. BOLLYWOOD STYLE breaks the mould slightly as she does come here on the back of a fast-finishing second over six furlongs - she'd have won in another couple of strides - and gets to race of the same mark. Both her career victories have come over course and distance and she's therefore considered the most likely winner. Marksbury is one of few here to have improvement in them and on the evidence of her Kempton third she's set to be suited by the drop to seven furlongs, but attacking tactics are tricky to employ at this venue. Batchworth Blaise met a handicap snip last time and should acquit himself well if stall 12 can be overcome, Dontforgeturshovel debuts on the surface on remains capable of better while Ymir has place claims but is a thoroughly exposed maiden.
