        Verdict

        Rhubarb Bikini won a lower grade contest over track and trip last time while Masked Identity finished runner-up at Wolverhampton on his debut for a new yard. Widaad has placed since scoring at Newmarket in May though Miquelon is preferred attempting a mile for the first time after winning over 7f at Chepstow. But MOUNT MARCY (NAP) is expected to improve handicapping for the first time after placing over today’s trip at Kempton the last twice and the Gosden colt gets the vote to open his account.
