    Verdict

    Nicky Henderson does well with his Flat entries but Overpriced Mixer is having a first run for the yard after almost a year on the sidelines, though Ryan Moore rides. KNOWING looks the one to be on in a tricky ‘getting-out’ stakes as he was repeatedly denied a run when only beaten a length over track and trip last time. James Fanshawe’s gelding is preferred to lightly-weight three-year-old Grinling and Fantastic Blue, who beat Matewan on the Rowley Mile course here in June and is a pound better off. Haydock winner Potenza is definitely worth another try over this trip while French Riviera has been knocking on the door, though remains winless.
