    In depth

    Verdict

    Golden Taurus and Roodee Queen have claims on the best of their form on turf but neither have been seen at the track since last August. Southwell winner Mazovian was well beaten on his sole start on Polytrack and has something to find with today's rivals on these terms anyway, so by default the vote goes to LOVES THEME. She did well to finish so close to the higher rated My Lord when runner-up in a claimer over C&D last time and a repeat effort should be enough to go one better here.
