      Verdict

      Centurion Song was beaten by Fantasy Keeper when sent off favourite here last time and the latter has subsequently finished behind third-placed Duke Of Firenze over track and trip. Diamond Dougal made his Fibresand debut in a higher grade recently and won off today’s mark at Wolverhampton last year. ZAPPER CASS also drops back down in class and returns to the minimum trip for the first time since scoring at the track in December. Mick Appleby’s charge gets another chance as Qaaraat may find life tougher at this higher level.
