      Verdict

      Three of these - Highly Sprung, Mr Orange and Round The Island - have six victories each on the track while Magical Effect also has a course and distance victory to his credit. Round The Island is 9lb higher than his victory here in October while TRUE MASON has only won once in 21 starts. However the latter, once rated 109, looked on the way back to form at Newcastle last time and can double his winning tally. Final Frontier is another on a losing run and is still 1lb higher than his latest success in 2019.
