        Verdict

        Mezzotint ended Kalon Brama's winning run when scoring over track and trip earlier in the month and is weighted to confirm superiority though the latter was beaten less than a length and is not easily dismissed. But a chance is taken on ROYAL SILK (NAP) returning to winning ways as this is much easier than her latest task at Ascot and she won off a 3lb lower mark at Goodwood earlier in the year. Atlantic Affair is usually in the mix without winning while Al's Memory is 5lb higher than when landing an amateur's race at Salisbury in August.
