      Verdict

      All of these have scored at the course before with SHOWBOATING (NAP) having the most recent winning form. He scored by six lengths over track and trip last month with Quadriga and Alpha Tauri both well beaten and looks the one to beat. Westminster has looked high enough in the weights since January's victory here but Ian's Memory won his maiden at the track in the same month and has since scored at Kempton. Blazeofenchantment won here last year but arrives in poor form.
