Verdict

CONCILIATE (5) is racing well with four placings in succession, the latest effort a 2.8m second at this circuit and distance. Draws a little wider but this could be her chance to return to the winners' list. SEASIDE DRIVE (3) produced a good effort to come from a wider barrier and finish second last week at Penrith, beaten 1.1 metres. Likely to get the favours from this nice draw. This looks a suitable assignment so could find winning form. MUSICSTAR (6) will be close to peak fitness after respectable thirds at her two appearances at Newcastle since a spell. LAST LEXUS (8) draws wider but won his only previous second-up attempt and will be fitter for fourth when resuming here last week.
