Verdict
TRUE BELIEF (NAP) won this a year ago on soft ground then was beaten a head on heavy over 6f on a return visit. He's only raced on Polytrack subsequently and this looks his chance to get back on the winning trail. Dual Tapeta winner Imperial Butterfly has changed stables after a poor run at Redcar but she'd run well previously at Leicester while the maiden Mobarhin has only had four starts and wouldn't need much improvement to take a hand. Bonus won on soft ground at Lingfield in June but is 8lb higher while Jack Ryan's latest victory was in a seller.
