      Verdict

      STARFIELD (NAP) scored over track and trip in between defeats elsewhere and gets the vote to confirm running with Royal Holiday. The latter won here earlier when beating Toto Skyllachy so the form book points to Michael Appleby's charge going in again. Naoise makes his Fibresand debut having won twice at Wolverhampton in October but Piceno has won here before, though arrives out of sorts and was well behind fourth-placed Kung Hei Fat Choy over 7f here last week.
