          Verdict

          Melabi had a run under his belt before winning last year’s renewal though can race off a lower mark today. Hussar Ballad is a rare winner on Turf but can also race off a lower mark having been thereabouts on the all-weather recently while Druid's Diamond and Trautmann filled the places at Wolverhampton last time. Zig Zag wil be sharper for a recent comeback at Catterick but RICHARD STRAUSS finished third over today’s trip at the same meeting and may come out best with Paul Hanagan taking over the reins for this.
