      Verdict

      Master Rajeem is an out-and-out stayer and, though eased in grade after being pulled up in the cross-country chase at Cheltenham, is likely to be flat out just to keep up with a couple of these. KING MASSINI (NAP) usually races prominently and was just overhauled by Shy John at Taunton two weeks ago. He should enjoy these tight turns and could hang on out in front today. Houndscourt, a winner at Sedgefield in February, could be vying for minor honours with recent Stratford third Unknown Legend.
