      Verdict

      Chella Thriller won over a shorter trip here nearly a year ago and should improve for this. Comedy House found only one too good at Lingfield three weeks ago but his only win on the Flat so far came over 2m. ABLE DASH returned to action with a victory over track and trip and the third has won subsequently. The form looks solid enough so Michael Blake's charge gets the nod to follow up with plenty of scope for improvement. Standing Strong and Polydamos are regulars at this level and can get involved if at their best.
