      Verdict

      Both My Reward and Volcanic Sky stay further than this and like to lead. Though that pair are respected, they might just set this race up for a finisher with SPEED COMPANY fitting the bill. After a pipe-opener at Doncaster, Ian Williams’ charge has been a model of consistency this season and deserves to get his head back in front. Archi's Affaire was too keen when behind Mutamaded in a ladies’ race at York in June but has a bit to prove now. Qawamees is now 0-15 and has been beaten in lesser company of late.
