Verdict
Quadriga just held off a strong challenge from Reggie Bond when scoring here last month. But only by a short-head and that pair are hard to separate in this. LITMUS handed a more conclusive beating to Brown Pete when runner-up here recently and Simon Dow's charge gets the token vote in this company. Lambert Pen has a shout on his best placed efforts though he's yet to win a race while the veteran Follow The Flag continues to tumble down the weights without showing any benefit.
