      Verdict

      Cruise Tothelimit has looked badly in need of a drop in rating as he has looked unable to perform from marks in the 80's in his last two outings. David O'Meara has sent out plenty of winners recently and Abzolutely is not without a chance on form taken from races at Ripon and Catterick, with both affairs producing plenty of winners. However, her last two starts have been abject and she needs to find more today. Rothesay Chancer will need to use every pound advantage he has in the weights to get involved and Berberana is likely to find this easier than a listed field at Redcar. The vote goes the way of CRIMSON KNOT who only narrowly lost out here last time and with the Champion-elect in the saddle she can go on to score. Lady Paris is relatively unexposed and could challenge as the trainer had the winner of this race last year and Insolenceofoffice is another in a competitive race with claims.
