        Verdict

        Ace of Hearts, Siberian Tiger and Orchard Supreme make the shortlist here with ACE OF HEARTS set to come up trumps. Ace of Hearts, a course winner, shoulders top weight here but he has been in great heart of late, just touched off in three very competitive handicaps. Consequently the handicapper has raised his rating for losing - he is two pounds higher here - but this is an easier contest than he has been contesting and a bold showing is anticipated. In contrast Siberian Tiger does not seem badly treated. Two pounds lower than when fourth in a good handicap on Derby Day, he advertised his wellbeing when chasing home the talented Meydan City last time and looks set to go well. Orchard Supreme won here in May and has since run well in the Royal Hunt Cup. He was badly drawn when well beaten here on his latest start and should not be left out of calculations. Ace of Hearts has been knocking at the door recently and can gain an overdue success.
