    Verdict

    Quoteline Direct has won three times around here and has scored from much higher marks. Headingley has dropped significantly in the ratings on Turf but is better on the all-weather. Tele Red looked like losing his maiden tag after two very good runs on this sort of ground but pulled much too hard at Ayr and Prince Achille's one good run came on soft ground. DANDY'S ANGEL was narrowly beaten in a similar race on fast going at Beverley and today's rider won this race a year ago. Le Bayou has won once in 32 starts but is generally a good ride for an amateur.
