      Verdict

      Demora beat the odds-on Maljaa at Leicester 11 days ago when Kimberella and Dungannon, who is bidding for hat-trick in this contest, were both behind. Steps won the Portland over a slightly longer trip here last month and can be forgiven his latest run in the Prix l'Abbaye at Longchamp so comes into contention. LUCKY BEGGAR (NAP), Robot Boy and Kimberella were all behind in the Portland but Charlie Hills' five-year-old was in front at this distance until being swamped close home. He is 8lb better off with the winner and that may be enough to turn the tables given he's now 9lb lower than his last winning mark. Arctic Feeling beat Adam's Ale by a nose at Catterick last week when Confessional, Kimberella and Union Rose were all unplaced but Perfect Pasture has gone up 3lb since his second to Union Rose at York.
