    Verdict

    The Betchworth Kid won this as a three-year-old and has dropped to a lowly mark but his recent runs offer little encouragement. Presto Volante arrives in good heart, will love the trip but is now on his highest ever mark. MONTJESS attempted to make all at Sandown and though passed by Argent Knight she fought back valiantly. The track and trip will suit and this looks a good opportunity for her. Fledged has never won beyond 1m4f and this is his toughest task to date but there's more to come and he's an obvious threat.
