      Verdict

      Ian McInnes is back training after a break and has acquired Autumn Flight after the seven-year-old gained the ninth victory of his career at Brighton. Though that was on fast going, he won on heavy ground in his early days. DANZART (NAP) has gradually been dropping to a winnable mark and finished runner-up on soft going here last month so this looks a good opportunity to double his winning tally. He had Autumn Angel just behind and the positions can be confirmed. It's two years since King Of Speed won a race and he's been confined to the all-weather recently.
