      Verdict

      Ada Lovelace took this last year and won here in June but has never been successful off a mark this high. Whitecrest was completing a double when scoring here in June with PUCON back in third. But she remains 3lb higher and appears to have gone off the boil a little lately whereas Roger Teal's charge has thrived so can beat his old rival and also get the better of Polytrack specialists Gentlemen and Pour La Victoire.
