        Verdict

        After three all-weather victories, HINT OF STARS made all for a very convincing victory at Yarmouth and though up 8lb can make enough progress to defy the extra. Let Me Be has won six times this campaign including over the track and trip so is greatly respected while Wise Eagle numbered a course and distance victory amongst this year's five successes. Euro Implosion takes a step-up in grade but is only 3lb higher than when completing a hat-trick while Red Missile just outbattled Let Me Be here last month and is 1lb better off. Gabrial The One generally races over shorter but stays the trip and is very consistent.
