        Verdict

        King's Head, Reem Three and Great Hawk are the three we like in this handicap with the vote given to Reem Three. The selection won in good style here last month when getting the better of Quince. She is a filly clearly on the upgrade and if she handles this fast ground then she should take all the beating. King's Head was a respectable fourth behind Stage Gift at Epsom and that form gives him a realistic chance today as that was a particularly hot race. Great Hawk is lightly-raced and he did win a maiden in good style at Haydock last month, so he has to be considered, especially as his cause will be boosted by the return to racing on fast ground. Crime Scene may find that this trip stretches his stamina and he may be best watched, which returns us to Reem Three as our idea of the winner.
