    Verdict

    Focail Maith has the form to figure in this but the lack of a recent run is a disadvantage. SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL won an uncompetitive maiden here earlier this month and has been unlucky to come up against progressive, well-regarded rivals when runner-up on three other occasions. He's just preferred to Palm Pilot, who bids for a hat-trick after holding on by the narrowest of margins at Lingfield in January and Baharat, who just got the better of Standout here last week and carries a 6lb penalty as a result.
