        Verdict

        The consistent Lordsbridge Girl placed yet again at Yarmouth last time and looks in the handicapper's grip at present while the same comment also applies to Split Elevens. King of The Dance returns to this longer trip with a shout but it could pay to stick with OVERNIGHT OATS. The latter also steps up in distance having landed a double over 7f with a victory at Sandown earlier in the week and is taken to defy a penalty up against these older horses.
