        Verdict

        A winner at Haydock last time, Mythical Madness beat the below par previous winner Vale Of Kent on that occasion but is 7lb higher today. Poet's Society is only 3lb higher than when scoring at Leicester and preferred to Brother McGonagallm, who is upped in class under a penalty after last week’s course and distance success. The consistent Presidential is another facing a more difficult task than of late and the vote goes to NICHOLAS T (NAP), a runner-up here last week and a close-up third off a similar mark in last year’s renewal.
