    Verdict

    A six pound penalty shouldn't stop Excape winning again and he gets the vote ahead of Medici Time and Top Vision. David Elsworth¿s runners always have to be respected here and Excape is no exception having won nicely enough at Windsor last week. The trainer is striking while the iron is hot and the hint should be taken. Medici Time made a very pleasing reappearance at Catterick and should be capable of going close off this current mark. Top Vision also comes here following a seasonal return and there could be plenty of improvement to come. Highland Love went close last time and is another to consider for the places. However we believe Excape should fill the winning berth
