      Verdict

      The veteran Restorer is fitted with a tongue strap looking to end a losing run stretching back to 2020 while Neandra looks no nearer winning on Turf judged on her latest effort at Sandown. Dreams Adozen has been in the mix lately but ALBA LONGA (NAP) gets another chance. The latter was a beaten favourite last time but won on soft going at Windsor before that and connections will welcome any further rain.
