        Verdict

        Lady Lunchalot returned to form with a head defeat of Apache Glory over track and trip but it's hard to separate that pair. The latter had narrowly beaten Hector's Chance here earlier with Ze King further behind. Bobby Benton will be more at home back in this lower grade after a fifth at Chelmsford but Rain God has shown little since leaving Ballydoyle. SABRE ROCK has a 9lb hike to contend with having recorded a four-timer over course and distance but still won with plenty in hand last time and is worth sticking with in this.
