        Verdict

        Mark Johnston has won the last two of these and SHADOW GAME can make it a hat-trick. A maiden winner at Newmarket in August, where he had today's rival Strictly Carter just over a length back in second, he was well beaten when stepped up in class at Ascot later but his earlier form points to his chances in this company. The runner-up must have a good chance of reversing the form on the revised terms and rates the main threat. Sir Dudley has been frustrating on the all-weather and James Given resorts to blinkers while Another Boy, who landed a Chepstow maiden on soft ground last May, makes his debut on an artificial surface.
