    Verdict

    Lexington Law was back to form the last twice but both runs were in claimers and he may find the steadier of 10-0 a tough ask returned to handicap company. He has favourable conditions though and isn't ruled out. Kiefer has gone nicely on both handicap starts since chasing home Eagles By Day in a classy maiden and scored with something to spare here over 1m3f in May. PREJUDICE, fourth on that occasion, has delivered a sound effort at Newmarket since, will appreciate this move up in trip and is 10lb better off with Kiefer now. Past Master, Noble Behest and Skymax need to bounce back to some extent but overall profiles reveal them as useful types.
