Verdict

VICTORIA LILY (9) finished in tenth when resuming from a spell last start over 1m at Ohi. Placed at her only other second up appearance. Can bounce back in this much easier assignment today. ARCHAIQUE STAR (11) has not been sighted since she scored over 7f at this track on November 27. Can pick up from where he left off last campaign. DIOMEDES (7) returned from a spell two months ago when he was tenth over 7f at this track. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. LEMON DROP (6) finished fourth over 7 ½f at this track when resuming last start, beaten only 1.5 lengths. Fitter so can feature in the finish.
