        Verdict

        Monaco Rose and the less exposed Heart Of Soul share ownership for different yards though both failed to figure on their latest visits to this venue. But JABBAAR (NAP) was beaten less than a length over course and distance earlier this month and Iain Jardine’s charge is fancied to come out best today as this looks less competitive. Desert Ruler has been winning at Newcastle but is 8lb higher and hasn’t won on Turf since 2015 while Be Perfect has slipped down the weights and has won over track and trip in the past.
