      Verdict

      Monaco Rose landed a double over 1m4f earlier this year and remains 6lb higher but most of these are proving hard to win with including BRAES OF LOCHALSH. But the latter went close in a tougher handicap than this over track and trip last month and a repeat should see him come out best in this. Transpennine Star is closely matched with the selection on latest running and the veteran Itlaaq could bounce back at any time but Buzz Boy was well beaten here last time.
