      Verdict

      SASSOON returned an easy winner at Redcar last week to land a double and can defy today’s penalty given Ben Haslam’s charge is due to be raised 9lb after this. Maurice Dancer went close at Yarmouth last time and has won on Tapeta in the past while Six Strings was placed at Southwell recently looking to end a long losing run. Kapono slides further down the weights but Tommy G has yet to win on the all-weather while Electric Mistress has more scope than most.
