        Verdict

        Most of these are up in class including all three recent winners. Arabian Beauty is less exposed than Choral Festival and Loch Ma Naire having won at Catterick recently but Martinas Delight and Taro Tywod have struggled off higher marks since winning earlier in the season. Russian Royale went close at Newmarket and Richard Hughes takes over the reins for this but THATCHEREEN wasn't beaten far in a Class 3 contest at Nottingham last time and gets the nod on that basis.
