        Verdict

        Several of these were involved in the race won by Granary Girl at Bath on Sunday and it may pay to concentrate on those involved there with Laurollie taken to confirm form with Ophistrolie, Beauchamp Turbo and Ruling Reef. The selection, who had won a maiden claiming race at Nottingham previously, stayed on well into fifth at Nottingham suggesting that today's longer trip would bring further improvement. Ophistrolie (ninth), Beauchamp Turbo (11th) and Ruling Reef (14th) at Nottingham are difficult to recommend meeting the selection on the same terms and of more interest may be Neville Callaghan's Shades Of Green, who also steps up in trip and has the assistance of Frankie Dettori. Michael Bell's Royal Game is interesting first time in a handicap but Laurollie remains feasibly well treated and gets the vote.
