      Verdict

      SIR PLATO won a higher grade contest over track and trip before going close again back here and gets the nod in his current form. Rod Millmans’ charge finished in front of both Macs Dilemma and Eye Of The Water last time and the former has placed again subsequently. Above It All disappointed at Brighton having won at Haydock earlier while Joy Choi is back on a winning mark but has something to prove over this far.
