    Verdict

    A few of these have claims but the unexposed DUTCH RIFLE makes most appeal. She scored at the first time of asking over the extended mile trip here last month and the form looks solid given the runner-up has subsequently won. A dual winner at Kempton, Spiritual Flame failed to cope in better company than this last time but is nonetheless preferred to maiden winner Queenie's Home. Mersad opened his account in first-time cheekpieces last month but they've been replaced by blinkers today while Crowdmania showed some improvement for a slide down the weights when runner-up over a longer trip at Lingfield on Monday.
