      Verdict

      Three-year-olds have won all five previous renewals but Salieris Mass will need to improve on her handicap debut fifth at Newmarket to add her name to the list. Stablemate Master Of Finance usually finds at least one too good at this level and Chancery is now 10lb higher than his earlier win over 1m2f at Ripon. Penhil had an easier opportunity at Pontefract last time but came up just short while The Character has something to prove over today's longer distance. However, FRACTAL (NAP) posted his best effort of the year so far when fourth in this grade at Newmarket last month and David Simcock's charge gets the nod to come good with further progress expected.
