      Verdict

      The ground will suit Kalifourchon, who wasn't disgraced in a strongly-run race at Sedgefield last time, and he's preferred to disappointing stablemate Gary Charm. Expedite was third on his reappearance at Newton Abbot but tries a new trip, as does Ffos Las runner-up Bendomingo. DESERT SENSATION was probably too keen when only fifth at Aintree after winning over an extended 3m at Fontwell. He could get back on the winning trail if settling better here.
