      Verdict

      Jagger can pick up this prize at the expense of Gala Evening and The Carlton Cannes. Gerard Butler's charge has been running over inadequate trips of late and clearly needs two miles to be at his best. A couple of pipeopeners should have served him well and the market is watched. Gala Evening beat a useful sort in Legend Erry last time out. He was a fair hurdler and could be open to progression on the flat. The Carlton Cannes won an event that was posted in a diabolically slow time. He could be better if a strong pace ensues. Pearl seems best in claimers these days. Mister Completely is likeable enough but should be outclassed here. Jagger is hardly bombproof as a punting medium but appears to have been found a suitable opportunity.
