      Verdict

      Hero's Story has gone well on his last three starts and should be in the money again but a career record of 0-18 is a concern. Yourholidayisover looked a winner-in-waiting when runner-up at Newcastle in May but has failed to produce a similar level on two subsequent runs. Voice From Above and EILEAN MOR were first and third at Hamilton last month but the latter appeals as a more reliable performer and has posted a subsequent success over 2m and a runner-up effort here most recently. Course and distance winner Wor Lass also has claims under the rapidly-improving Rachel Richardson in an open finale.
