      Verdict

      Therthaar won easily on his latest start in May to record a hat-trick of wins at Wolverhampton. But he has a 10lb rise to contend with here and HENPECKED is preferred. The latter was well beaten in better company last time but had gone close in this grade on three occasions before that and gets another chance today. Tectonic will take advantage of a slip down the weights before long and Weld Al Khawaneej has been thereabouts off similar marks of late and both make more appeal than Incurs Four Faults and So Celebre.
