      Verdict

      The veteran OCEAN LEGEND looks the one to beat on today's terms. He has won three times this year already, including last week's victory over 7f at Kempton, and today's shorter trip is no problem. Spitfire has a shout on his recent placed efforts but usually does his winning at Southwell nowadays so Harrogate Fair is preferred dropped in class on his reappearance and sporting different headgear. Rain God won for Ballydoyle back in 2013 but has shown little so far in four starts for new connections.
