      Verdict

      TRUMPS BENEFIT is starting to slip down the weights again and was racing from out of the handicap when falling last time at Plumpton. Blaze A Trail had The Garrison well behind at Stratford in July and has won twice again since. He makes more appeal than Touchthesoul but Braveheart could be the type for fences having been lightly raced over hurdles.
