Verdict

Man Of Verve won by a neck at Newcastle in September and Pope Gregory steps up in trip having landed a double over a mile here last month. CAFE MILANO has slid down the handicap and showed the benefit when beaten less than a length at Kempton. The headgear is back on for this and a bold showing is expected. Double Reflection and Kenstone are not badly treated if at their best while Minori is one of the least exposed.
