Verdict
PROFILE STAR ended a long losing run when scoring at Wolverhampton earlier this month. He's taken to confirm running with fourth-placed Dorback and go in again. Kakatosi disappointed last time having won at Lingfield previously and the consistent Lastkingofscotland steps up a grade off a higher mark on the back of a win over course and distance. Gorgeous Goblin scored over the minimum trip on her latest start but that was back in August while Lujeanie dead-heated for first with Majuro in a claimer at Lingfield last month but re-opposes on better terms.
