Verdict

Irish raider SINGLE LADY makes a quick reappearance having won at Kempton on Thursday. Martin Harley negates a chunk of her penalty and she can follow up on only her second start of the year. Politbureau went close at Carlisle recently and looks likely to be winning soon, while Laconicos also has claims judged on his recent placed efforts over shorter trips. Motarjm was runner-up here recently but hasn't won on the level for nearly three years now so the less-exposed Art Thief makes more appeal.
