      Verdict

      An interesting Listed Race in which Levera gets the call ahead of Take A Bow and New Seeker. New Seeker is proven in this grade and won well at Leicester last time but he has to concede a penalty to the field. Army Of Angels is well up to this level but the Godolphin team has yet to start firing. Final Verse won a Listed race at Goodwood last season but has been a little flat in two runs so far this season, although his stable is in very good form. Kew Green needs to improve by a few pounds, while Levera keeps on improving and he could make them all go from the front. Finally, a repeat of his fine third to Jeremy in the Betfred Mile last time would see the course and distance winner Take A Bow go well but, for the selection, we will nominate Levera.
