      Verdict

      The veteran With Hindsight ended a long losing run with a victory over track and trip last month and London Glory went close here on his latest start. Great Return opened his account with an easy win over 2m at the track last week and is penalised along with LUV U WHATEVER. The latter scored over a similar trip to this at Chelmsford five days ago but a penalty is negated by an apprentice’s allowance and Marjorie Fife’s charge should make another bold bid.
