    Verdict

    EXPLICIT makes a fourth start after posting a couple of runner-up efforts in Scotland, although he was beaten more emphatically in a decent Chester maiden. It's interesting to see him demoted to selling grade so quickly but this looks his best opportunity to date. Stolen Glory has probably done what was required by landing a claimer at Beverley, now his owner - and trainer - moves her into selling company. She scored comfortably at Beverley and is hard to accurately assess on the evidence but should go well. Nevertheless, Don't Fight It may prove a likelier source of danger after showing promise on debut and dropping to this level after running in Listed company.
