      Verdict

      SPEED DATING has been in fine form this summer and is taken to win again at the expense of Scamperdale and Enriched. The selection comes form a yard in top form and having won two from four outings this term he is a horse on the upgrade. Connections have taken the advantage of running again before his rating can be reassessed and if recapturing his form he will prove difficult to beat. Scamperdale bids for a hat-trick of wins after his victories at Leicester. He has however risen twenty two pounds in the weights as a consequence and may find life tougher form now on. Encircled caught the eye after finishing second at Kempton last time out and will be winning again in the near future, however he is sure to find one too good this time around and it looks likely to be the Sir Mark Prescotts Speed Dating.
