        Verdict

        Five of the 11 entries in this are previous course winners. King Of Tonga and Lihou are drawn one and two respectively so should be up with the pace. ROMAN DRAGON is alongside the pair, however, so should get a good lead into the contest and he will likely see out this intermediate distance better than most. Glory Fighter has finished second three times off this mark this year but Hyperfocus and Gabrial The Devil have been unlucky with the draw. Sampers Seven slips further down the weights so looks a threat and Ancient Times also has claims having run better than the final result suggests at York on Wednesday.
