    Verdict

    Course and distance winner Awake My Soul has re-joined David O'Meara after racing in Italy without success but jockey bookings suggest stablemate Chancery is preferred. The latter was only fifth at Haydock last time when Salieris Mass finished fourth and BUONARROTI was beaten less than a length in second. The latter looks set to go close again off his current mark and Declan Carroll's charge is preferred to recent Goodwood winner Imshivalla but Off Art looks a bigger threat in this grade on his third at York last month.
