    Verdict

    Hat-tick seeking Aleatricis is given the vote to beat Trip The Light and Livvy Inn. The selection has a win at this track over a similar trip under his belt and was a ready winner at Ayr last time out when sent off a short price favourite. He has everything in his favour and should have no problems landing this if showing his best once again. Trip The Light won at Redcar on his penultimate run and was raised nine pounds for it. He was exposed off a mark of 55 last time out at Beverley and has gone up a further three pounds for getting beat so he does look unfairly treated on what he has achieved. Livvy Inn has been consistent without ever looking like winning this season. He ran well in a competitive field here last time out and has to be given respect once again, but for the winner we return to Aleatricis.
