        Verdict

        Evening Starlight is penalised for winning at Bath recently but Fleeting Glimpse was less than a length behind and may turn the tables. Mercers was narrowly denied at Brighton last time and Exquisite Ruby was runner-up at Chepstow on her latest start. Both can be given a chance in this but ENTERTAINING BEN wasn’t that far away when only fifth in a higher grade contest at Bath last month and it could be his turn today racing off a lower mark with Silvestre De Sousa’s presence a positive.
