        Verdict

        A tight contest on the figures and Leicester winner FAULT will need some luck in running from his rail draw if connections opt to use the hold-up tactics that were employed last time although he has jumped out and made all in the past which might make more sense here given that the stands' side rail is usually the place to be. He does, at least, have recent winning form to his name in a race which has turned into something of a milliner's fashion show with all bar two of the runners wearing headgear. Lou Bear and Voortrekker wear their aids for the first time and may improve as a result whilst I Confess and Landucci are capable of playing a hand.
