      Verdict

      Raydiance returned to winning ways at Redcar a week ago with Hajjam behind. He’s 3lb higher today but Diocles Of Rome has a 7lb hike to contend with after scoring at Doncaster and Vale Of Kent still looks a shade high in the weights though should be sharper for a recent comeback. MUBHIJ came up short at Goodwood last time when finding only one too good but Roger Varian’s charge had won nicely at Yarmouth on his earlier reappearance and gets another chance given he also landed a novices' race over track and trip last year. Name The Wind and Woven are others with scope and are worth a second glance.
