      Verdict

      SAMARMADI (NAP) may well have preserved his unbeaten record last time at Wolverhampton had he got away on level terms. There was give in the ground when he scored at Doncaster at the start of the month and Hugo Palmer’s gelding can get back on track here. Childesplay has won off a higher mark and has been thereabouts in most races this term. He looks the danger, despite struggling to get his head back in front. Lucky Louie is better on Polytrack but was only beaten a head when favourite at Salisbury in May.
