        Verdict

        Champagne Rules remains in fine form having won at Wolverhampton before going close again over track and trip off today’s higher mark. But ECHO returned to winning ways when beating Nevada a couple of lengths over course and distance with Splash Of Verve and Hugoigo further behind and Jedd O’Keefe’s charge may prove the one to side with raised only 4lb. First Call returned a losing favourite when runner-up at Kempton last time and Nearly There is another to consider having found only one too good at this venue back in December.
