Verdict

Hadaj made use of the full 6f here last week when getting his head in front in the closing stages so REBECCA ROMERO is preferred over today's minimum trip as she's been keeping better company than this since scoring at Salisbury in June and can return to winning ways back in this grade. Arctic Lynx is a rare winner nowadays and then only on the Polytrack and beat Tagula Night at Kempton last month. The veteran Rowe Park is still capable at this level on his day and makes more appeal than Pea Shooter and the remaining pair.
