        Verdict

        Belle Travers has found one too good over a mile on her last three outings now while Bright Flash failed to show any improvement stepped up to today's trip for the first time when fourth at Epsom last month. The Wee Barra defied a 2lb rise to land a double with a victory at Ripon but has gone up a further 6lb for that while Oriental Tiger's earlier placed efforts came over 1m4f. HAYMARKET (NAP) saves his best for this venue and races in this lower grade for the first time since scoring over track and trip in August. He gets the nod off only a 3lb higher mark.
