      Verdict

      Mark's Choice has won three of his five starts this season, including one over course and distance when he finished ahead of today’s rival Look Out Louis. He keeps climbing the weights but should run his race again. Chitra is another arriving on a hat-trick but steps up a couple of grades for this. Moss Gill may be improving but didn’t have much to beat when getting off the mark at Doncaster. Good Luck Fox won twice as a juvenile but may not have trained on. TENAX handles an easy surface and continues to run well. The 6f was too far last time and Faye McManoman’s claim is a plus today.
