        Verdict

        Danish Duke completed a double on soft ground and didn't quite have the pace on much quicker going at Doncaster though that was a slightly better race. More Beau has had very little racing and his only victory was on ground with some give at Redcar but TRICKY DICKY has won on heavy going and fast ground including over this track and trip last time so Olly Williams' three-year-old gets the vote. Van Gerwen is 6lb higher than his victory at Thirsk in May but hasn't performed badly in better company while Royal Normandy has also been racing in slightly higher class.
