      Verdict

      A tough test for two-year-olds given the prevailing ground and the vote goes to JUNO THE MUFFINMAN. He's looked a little one-paced so far, but ploughed through the mud to finish fourth over 1m2f at Haydock last time and could simply outstay today's rivals. Joshua The First has made the frame over a mile here the last twice and should be thereabouts again, though Dubious Escapade and I'm Harry could prove bigger threats if handling the ground. Docs Legacy will need to improve on his recent win at Wolverhampton and Come To Mind doesn't look good enough.
