      Verdict

      Powerallied is best at Chester and finished second at the latter track on his latest start. Watchable was runner-up over 6f here last time and won over the same trip at Doncaster in May while Sheepscar Lad has struggled since landing a hat-trick. Neither Dakota Gold nor Robot Boy arrive in the best of form so a tentative vote goes to MOVE IN TIME, who has been keeping better company since winning at Newmarket in May and won off higher marks in the past.
