Verhoyen is a four-times track winner who has scored from higher marks and has a favoured high draw. Independent Expert is just 3lb higher than when gaining his only Turf success over the track and trip and Cian Horgan's claim takes care of that. Akmaam was brought with a late run to score over the trip at Dundalk but Cnodian is better over 6f. TALL STORY (NAP) is a 22-race maiden but was unlucky in-running in a huge field over 6f here last month and Jamie Powell's 2lb claim is a major plus.
