      Verdict

      Danzili Bay was just touched off in a handicap last time and can go one better this afternoon, Elgin Marbles, Captain Johnno and Amica are also expected to go well. Peter Chapple-Hyam's colt attracted plenty of money in that Thirsk contest and looked all over the winner a furlong out but was just held at bay by Anfield Dream. He will come on for that effort and looks the one to be on. Elgin Marbles comes out on top on official ratings and on the pick of last season's form he would have every chance, although he has disappointed in to runs so far this season. Captain Johnno and Amica met at Lingfield last time in the race won by Guildenstern. Amica just came out on top on that occasion and is just preferred again this afternoon. Arabian Dancer may prove best of the remainder, but Danzili Bay can win today and repay his supporters.
