      Verdict

      Successful at Thirsk and Ripon already this season, Daffy Jane has her ground again and the champion on board but may be a few pounds too high now. SILCA MISTRESS could be another for the Clive Cox stable as she has struggled to get home over 7f since winning over this trip at Goodwood in June. Swissal needs some help from the handicapper while Danehill Desert just can’t seem to get his head in front and is arguably better over the minimum. Haverland remains winless and has not impressed in two previous runs over this trip.
