    Verdict

    Kempton winner Defined was beaten at Newcastle last time and headgear is applied. Parachute came up short sent off favourite at Redcar on his handicap debut and steps up in trip along with Annandale, who has been raised 7lb for winning at Nottingham. But ECHO POINT improves with every start and having finished runner-up in this grade over 1m2f here last month, Charlie Appleby’s charge gets the vote.
