    Verdict

    A progressive three-year-old, Solar View missed the whole of last year and returns to action off a 6lb higher mark having won at Thirsk when last seen on a racecourse. Wannabe Your Man scored at Nottingham but returned a losing favourite at Newbury last time and steps up to 2m for the first time. MEETINGS MAN has been competing over shorter trips and won over 1m5f at Newmarket last week. But he also scored over today's distance last season and Ali Brewer's charge gets the nod with the remaining pair hard to fancy.
