        Verdict

        MOSCATO is penalised for his latest win at Yarmouth but is progressing well and can go in again. Dr Irv has been threatening a return to winning ways and should figure but Beverley winner Attention Seeker is having her first start for over a year. Caledonia, Annaluna and Mustamir were all beaten last time having won their penultimate starts with the latter preferred as he attempts today's longer trip for the first time.
