        Verdict

        Vegas Boy bids for a hat-trick on his return to the all-weather having been raised a further 4lb for winning a lower grade sprint at Lingfield while Born To Finish has also been in good form on Turf and won at Bath last month. Kamra is upped in class off a higher mark after scoring at Wolverhampton but Chagatai faces an easier task than of late as he slips further down the weights. MAAKAASIB has also been keeping better company than this since winning last year’s renewal. He returns to this venue for the first time since and Simon Crisford’s charge should make another bold bid.
