        Verdict

        All Talk N No Do bids for back-to-back victories in this handicap but has 5lb more this year and was tailed off on his reappearance. Steve Rogers was favourite for the Chester Cup and was then eighth in the Northumberland Plate so will appreciate this slightly easier task. Plutocracy is consistent and will be a danger if he stays but a further step up in distance might test the stamina of Masterpaver, who is also upped in grade. Dawn Missile would have a chance on last year's form and Knight Music has been in good form but Nicky Henderson does well with his stayers on the Flat and useful hurdler COOL MACAVITY is feasibly treated on his first start on the level since 2012.
