      Verdict

      French Hollow has won twice here since the turn of the year but is likely to encounter a quicker surface on this occasion and may be worth opposing off a career-high mark. Dart wins her fair share of races on the all-weather but is prone to producing the odd poor run, as she did at Southwell earlier this month. Ravi River is a doubtful stayer, but Bute Street should strip fitter for his run behind French Hollow here 10 days ago though has plenty to find. The vote, therefore, goes to Irish raider ACCOMPANIST who won over a slightly shorter trip off this mark here 12 months ago and boasts a solid record on the Polytrack overall.
