    Verdict

    Rhubarb beat Gustav Graves by a neck over track and trip last time with Katar behind. Doctor Mozart also won here earlier in the month with LIL WADE back in third on his handicap debut. The latter re-opposes on better terms today, however, and has the scope to turn the tables. Victors Dream found one too good on his penultimate start when ahead of Aconcagua Mountain and may prove best of the rest.
