        Verdict

        Fossa arrives in fine form having just failed to record a hat trick when second at Lingfield last time. He's got the worst of the draw today, however, and EASTERN DRAGON is preferred. The latter scored over track and trip in April and is only 2lb higher with apprentices allowances taken into account. The remainder are no great shakes as Brynford is proving best over longer trips and the lightly-raced types such as Encapsulated, Transluscent and Rose Of May have yet to threaten.
