      Verdict

      SOUL SEEKER has been here three times and won twice including his last success on fast ground in August. He's on a 1lb lower mark here and has Calum Hogan's claim to aid his cause. Indian Sounds disappointed when favourite at Ayr while Cottam Lane is better over an extra furlong. Jarvis was racing in better company last summer and made a promising comeback at Newcastle where he didn't get the run of the race so he could provide the main threat.
