      Verdict

      A chance is taken NOBLE BEHEST handles the Fibresand as he bids for a hat-trick. He followed up a victory at Chelmsford with success at Wolverhampton and can shrug off a 4lb rise having won off higher marks in the past. Bodacious Name has been raised 2lb having narrowly beaten Shine Baby Shine, beaten nine lengths when only fourth here on Friday, over track and trip in November with Tigray further behind. Both Colwood and Contingency Fee have form on the surface though the latter has something to prove over today’s longer trip.
