      Verdict

      Vertumnus is the only one of these with recent winning form but has been drawn out with the washing today and will do well to follow-up. LILY WOOD won over C&D back in December and has gone close again here since. She might be up to taking this off her current mark and gets a tentative vote. Avonlini was placed at this track last time and may be capable of better, while Dickie Le Davoir showed signs of a return to form on his latest start and could figure. Raimond Ridge is another to consider judged on his past form.
