        Verdict

        Ella McCain partnered POINT OF WOODS to victory at Doncaster last week. He carries a penalty today but drops down a grade and can go in again. Spot Lite was narrowly beaten at Chepstow recently and can figure along with Suitcase 'n' Taxi, who is edging closer having slipped down the weights. Hello Girl can also be given a chance while Shall We Begin is among the least exposed and another to consider after posting her best effort yet when fourth at Catterick.
