      Verdict

      Flying Scotsman has plenty of ability and has moved from Joseph O'Brien. He'd be better with plenty of give but Roaring Legend's recent convincing victory at Salisbury came on fast ground. Hope You Can Run didn't appear to stay 1m6f at Doncaster so the vote goes to BERAZ. Formerly with Dan Skelton, who acquired him from France, he made a fine start for Julie Camacho on good to soft ground here in May and can go one better. Graces Quest is generally thereabouts and has a chance with her rider's claim a bonus.
