      Verdict

      ROYAL MARKSELL has got his act together this year winning three times including his latest outing at Leicester. With doubts surrounding today's opposition, he looks the safest bet. Special Fighter passed the post first over today's trip at Brighton but was disqualified for interference. He was well beaten at Epsom last time while Mariners Moon failed to convince when attempting today's longer trip for the first time beaten seven lengths at Thirsk. The rest are harder to fancy though In Vino Veritas hails from an in-form yard.
