      Verdict

      FREAK OUT completed a course and distance double with a bit in hand earlier this month and a hat-trick beckons. Arkenstaar completed a Hamilton double in May and has continued in good form with two decent efforts at Haydock. Invisible Friend ran in a better class race at Hamilton last time but needs to find some form while Solar Joe was nine lengths behind the selection here last month. Where's Jeff has found fast ground against him after scoring on good to soft at Hamilton so may prove best of the remainder.
