        Verdict

        WHATS FOR PUDDING arrives on the back of a couple of wins and stands out in this. Declan Carroll's filly is only 3lb higher than her latest victory on soft ground at Musselburgh and the hat-trick beckons. Eilean Eeve finished behind the selection at the Scottish track and has since gone close over C&D. She has decent claims on today's better terms, while both Chookie Avon and Caldermud showed signs of a return to form with better efforts on their latest outings. Whispering Spirit won a Wolverhampton seller on her penultimate start but this is tougher.
