      Verdict

      WEST LEAKE MELODY benefited from a change of tactics and opened his account over 7f here last time. He raced prominently throughout on that occasion and the way he battled to get his head in front on the line suggests he will appreciate the return to a mile. Double Duchess hasn't had much luck since scoring here at the beginning of the month but has the beating of Ad Vitam while Rath Maeve is another with a chance if forgiven her latest below par effort. Oh What's Occuring and Likeable Lad look up against it in this company.
