        Verdict

        This is an unusually-competitive Class 6 handicap with top weight Smart Lass bidding for a fifth course victory. She would have preferred more give in the ground but did finish ahead of recent Beverley second Yukon here last month. REAMS OF LOVE (NAP) has disappointed twice over this longer trip but got lit up by blinkers last time. Cheekpieces are tried today and he might be the form pick on his second at Haydock in June. Stamina looks an issue for Lady Ziana and Miss Roulette but This Ones For Fred was second over 1m4f at Ripon, though never threatened an easy winner. Ayr Empress disappointed at Ayr 11 days ago and may be due a rest.
