      Verdict

      Most of these are old foes and ALSVINDER needs to reverse last month’s running here with Verne Castle. But David O’Meara’s charge re-opposes on better terms in a first-time tongue-tie and beat the latter when runner-up over track and trip earlier in August. Dynamo Walt and Zamjar also finished behind the selection on that occasion and the latter beat subsequent Newmarket winner Excellent George here back in May. Arzaak and Our Lord finished runner-up on their respective latest starts, though both are upped in class today.
