      Verdict

      NAVE saves his best for this venue and scored over course and distance for the second time when successful here a fortnight ago. He's been raised 3lb but is dropped in class and can go in again. Both Castle Combe and Loch Ma Naire have something to prove in today's grade and also over 1m4f while Mustamir has blinkers fitted as he attempts the distance for the first time. Softly She Treads is hard to fancy on recent form.
