      Verdict

      VENTURA CASTLE is hard to oppose at the weights. Though a well-beaten third at Chelmsford on his reappearance, Richard Hannon's charge is clear of the opposition on today's terms and should take advantage. Paco's Dream has seven lengths to find with the selection on latest running while Moon Arc finished second in a Southwell seller last time but, like the remainder, has a stack to find at the weights with the likely short-priced favourite.
