        Verdict

        Several arrive in winning form with Tradesman bidding for a four-timer raised 6lb and KYLE OF LOCHALSH raised the same amount after scoring over course and distance. But the latter looks to have the more scope and faced a more difficult task last time. True Courage won over a slightly shorter trip here while Chase The Dollar scored at Wolverhampton and the unexposed Sun Tracker is not out of this either.
