Verdict

SEPAL (NAP) arrives with a penalty for a very smooth victory at Ayr last week for which she'll go up more than the 6lb extra she has to carry. Her young rider's claim is a bonus and she'll take some beating. Clenymistra has the same penalty for her narrow success over the track and trip on Tuesday so she can continue her good form while In Focus has been running in slightly better company and produced his best run in a while when narrowly beaten in a better handicap at Musselburgh. Correggio looks a threat after a very good run in a Class 4 handicap at Pontefract, though it's over two years since he won, while Decima made her handicap debut in an amateurs' race at Beverley and was beaten in a three-way photo.
