      Verdict

      Sir Plato and Zefferino, beaten only half-a-length over track and trip at the start of the month, are previous course winners but there is no reason to desert the in-form BEOWULF (NAP) just yet as he lost nothing in defeat in his hat-trick bid at Newbury when there was probably more give in the ground than was ideal. Fascinating Shadow has shown enough to suggest he can pick up a handicap off his current mark, as has Halcyon Spirit, but Yanifer may be a few pounds too high at present.
