      Verdict

      TRIPLE EIGHT (NAP) has only been raised 3lb since last month's course and distance victory in a higher grade and Adam Nicol's claim takes care of that. He's won on good to soft on the Flat so should handle the easier surface and will be hard to beat. It's impossible to have much faith in Gunner Lindley given he had every chance at Sedgefield on Friday when beaten 14 lengths. Moonlone Lane's win at Fairyhouse came over fences over a much longer trip but Sendiym has the past form to figure and can't be discounted.
