Verdict

SIMARTHUR looked a reformed character when strolling home over course and distance earlier this month and will take all the beating today if in the same mood, despite a 9lb higher mark, though he will need to reverse Carlisle running in October with Omid, who hasn't raced since. Lucinda Russell also runs Itstimeforapint but he may be better over fences nowadays. Mister Don still has time on his side but Solway Sam is now a teenager and stablemate Solway Legend is hard to predict. Arctic Court is tumbling down the weights but he's also getting a bit long in the tooth.
