      Verdict

      GREAT HALL and First Voyage have both won on their only starts over the track and trip. The former has been racing in much better company and, though not impressing, he's racing from his lowest-ever mark. Zzoro went up 5lb for landing a Sandown handicap at this level and did well to chase home Torcello in a better race on heavy ground at Epsom while Awake My Soul was in very good form around this time last year and gave signs of coming back at Pontefract. Rake's Progress is back on the same mark as when landing a lower-grade handicap at Goodwood while Sod's Law completed a double around this time a year ago and is on a lower mark.
