      Verdict

      Track-based trainer Scott Dixon runs two and SAMOVAR (NAP) finished in front of stablemate and 2015 winner Crosse Fire when scoring over track and trip at the start of the month. The former has subsequently finished ahead of Moonraker when third in a higher grade sprint here and should go close with a similar effort. The latter isn’t out of this either and Young Tiger has been winning here recently albeit in lowly Class 6 contests. Jonboy and Nick Vedder are others with something to find with the selection while Awsaaf has done all his winning on the all-weather at Wolverhampton so far.
