      Verdict

      Taffetta carries 6lb extra after winning in soft ground at Ayr but Anieres Boy escapes a penalty for landing an apprentices’ race at Chelmsford. Recent Wolverhampton winner Robbie Roo Roo is upped 3lb as she bids for a hat-trick while both Groundworker and Beau Mistral were placed on their latest starts with the former preferred having slipped down the weights. BRONZE BEAU won at Redcar last month and was ahead of Anieres Boy and Searanger when placed at the same track last time. He should go close off the same mark in this lower grade and Kristin Stubbs’ charge gets the nod.
