    Verdict

    KIKONGA is up 7lb for last month's victory at Nottingham. But she'll have come on for that seasonal return and looks the one to beat with further progress on the cards. Of Course Darling couldn't cope in Listed company at Goodwood last time but has a shout back at this level and Miss Cap Estel should also go well back over today's longer trip after a good effort at Windsor earlier this month. It's too soon to write off Huffoof given it was testing ground at Lingfield last time and she's better judged on her previous second at Newcastle while the consistent Ingleby Symphony has place claims once again.
