Verdict

The Haggas yard has won two of the last three renewals and is represented by LORDSHIP. The latter is upped in class and raised 8lb after winning over today’s trip at Yarmouth but hardly broke sweat on that occasion and the hat-trick beckons. Pledgeofallegiance also bids for a treble having made all at Doncaster last week while both novice winner Rogue Sea and maiden winner Banderas make their handicap debuts. Midnight Lion is another maiden winner though was beaten in handicaps earlier while Galactic Jack scored over 1m4f at Salisbury and is upped in trip along with Chillh and Imaginary World.
