    Verdict

    San Rafael is penalised for his course and distance victory, where he made most of the running, and meets better opposition here. Abwaaq, who started favourite, was beaten just under a length and must have a fair chance of reversing the form on these terms. Well Prepared made a promising debut at Leicester but weakened quickly after attempting to make all at Kempton so the vote goes to KINSMAN, who didn't get the run of the race over this trip at Yarmouth and can gain compensation.
