      Verdict

      Last year's winner Royal Bajan has won twice since but is 12lb higher this time round. Scarborough was third off a lower mark last term while stablemate Shipyard finished behind fourth-placed Come On Dave at Chelmsford last month. Rita's Boy beat Keep It Dark at Nottingham but the latter reversed the form in a lower class sprint here on his latest start when also beating Even Stevens and Sleepy Blue Ocean. Mappin Time has something to find with Keep It Dark on earlier form at Ripon and Zac Brown hasn’t raced since May. MEADWAY failed to figure in better company at Doncaster last time but has raced twice over track and trip previously and won on both occasions. Bryan Smart's sprinter gets a tentative vote to come good again in this.
