        Verdict

        A strike-rate of 1-25 is hardly a ringing endorsement for Polytrack specialist Play The Blues. Substantivo is a long-standing maiden who is better over 7f and Sam Spade appears to have lost the plot but It's All A Game could feature having dropped to a decent mark. FANTASY GLADIATOR (NAP) has done little wrong in his three runs on the all-weather so far for Mike Appleby. He can race off a 6lb lower mark back on Turf and should be good enough to give weight to this bunch.
