      Verdict

      ENOUGH ALREADY was upped in class when runner-up at Lingfield last week but won at the same track before that with Wadacre Gomez behind and gets another chance back at this level. Rogue Soldier won a maiden race at Wolverhampton and there looks more to come over middle-distances far but Boasty remains 5lb higher than when scoring here in April. Phantasy Mac looks best of the rest having slid down the weights.
