      Verdict

      Sky Power got his head back in front when dropped back down to today’s trip at Lingfield and is only 2lb higher but High Commissioner returns from a lay-off having placed at the same track in June. BYFORD (NAP) was having his first outing since April when narrowly beaten in a bunch finish at Wolverhampton and, having completed a double on the all-weather early in the year, he gets the vote to resume winning ways. Influencer should also be sharper for last month’s outing and is preferred to Athmad.
