        Verdict

        This looks quite a competitive finale and Maoi Chinn Tire is a standing dish here. The nine-year-old made a winning reappearance over track and trip in April and may have found the ground too quick on a return visit when behind Hallstatt. Minstrels Gallery has never won on Turf on the Flat, however, and more interesting are other course and distance winners Nam Hai and ATALAN (NAP). Both have been raised5lb but Hughie Morrison's charge is a year younger so may have a bit more scope – he gets the vote.
