        Verdict

        Four of these won their respective latest starts with Himself scoring in a lower grade over track and trip a fortnight ago and raised 4lb. Trulee Scrumptious is penalised for winning here last week but that was over a mile and Glory Awaits was successful over the same distance at Chelmsford recently. But BIG STORM COMING beat the re-opposing Colonel Frank a couple of lengths over today’s trip at Epsom last time and John Quinn’s charge is fancied to confirm running with the latter and go in again on that form.
