      Verdict

      Where's Jeff has taken time to rediscover the winning habit but has now risen 7lb in the weights since scoring in May and this looks tougher. Overwrite is performing well enough without winning and is steadily inching down the weights but Home Before Dark has been poor the last twice and connections now reach for headgear in an attempt to spark a revival. Regal Mirage is solid and should be thereabouts, whilst Howzer Black has run with credit in competitive handicaps, notably at York, in two of his last three starts. He looks solid but the ultra-consistent AYR POET will surely get his head in front soon and receives a good chunk of weight all round here.
