        Verdict

        See Vermont got the better of Rafaaf over track and trip last time but the latter re-opposes on better terms and Rob Hornby's allowance further aids his cause. But ASSERTIVE AGENT went close to taking advantage of a slide down the weights when third at Kempton on his latest start and the runner-up has subsequently boosted the form - Tony Carroll's charge may just edge this. Diamond Vine won a lower grade contest here in February but was behind See Vermont last time while though Trending scored over 5f here earlier in the year he has done all his winning to date over the minimum trip.
