    Verdict

    Its All A Lark made a winning start for Donald McCain when making all at Kelso and will probably adopt similar tactics here. But she does have a 7lb rise to overcome and is giving a couple of pounds to PETERS COUSIN, who would relish a fast pace having scored over further last time. A clear round should see Iconic Belle in the firing-line while Another Theatre arrives off the back of a win at Catterick. Valse Au Taillons was third on his reappearance at Exeter but the handicapper has taken no chances.
