        Verdict

        THE KNAVE was beaten only a nose here on his seasonal bow and may be good enough. Masqueraded went close over 1m2f back in February and has won over a mile before while Ubla is upped only 1lb after winning at Lingfield. Stars N Angels was a close-up third at Beverley recently, Specialv will appreciate any cut in the ground after a poor effort at Musselburgh while L'apogee, Briyouni, Pure Vanity and The King's Steed are all open to improvement.
