      Verdict

      Pour La Victoire just got the better of Storm Lightning over 6f here last time and the latter re-opposes on better terms. Royal Brave has a shout back over the minimum trip and Smoothtalkinrascal will take advantage of his slide down the weights before long. But WASEEM FARIS beat subsequent dual winner Swendab over 5f at Salisbury in June and is fancied to go close again off a 3lb higher mark.
