      Verdict

      Veracity is the clear form pick on admittedly limited experience but is hard to oppose in a race where the main dangers look to be Reciprocation and Gatecrasher. The last mentioned is bred to be useful but Pat Eddery's gelding gave little sign of encouragement on his debut so may be best watched. Telegonus ran better at Lingfield last time but is becoming exposed, while Grizebeck was well held on his debut and is hard to recommend. Reciprocation has been placed in each of his four starts and can be expected to be thereabouts again but he may have to settle for a minor role once more with preference for Veracity.
