        Verdict

        Expose got his head in front at the post to score at Lingfield last month and steps up a grade for this, as does recent 6f winner Bapak Bangsawan. Blessington drops back in distance but a drop in the weights may be more to his advantage after coming up short once again at Lingfield. Pabusar has been running well without success and finished ahead of SULIS MINERVA when fourth over track and trip last time. That was the latter's first start since July and back on a winning mark, Jeremy Gask's mare gets a speculative vote to come good again in this.
