Verdict

Card High beat Donnachies Girl when scoring at Hamilton last month but has been beaten since and has yet to win on the all-weather. The latter’s only success on artificial surfaces came here in 2017 while CALVINIST arrives on the back of a win over hurdles. Kevin Frost’s charge was narrowly beaten at Wolverhampton the last twice he raced on the Flat and should be bang there at the finish. Brodick was beaten only a length over 1m2f here in June but along with the likes of Imajorblush, Dangeroffizz and Point Of Honour has something to prove over this far.
