      Verdict

      With Three Little Birds due to run at Bath yesterday, WILEY POST can repeat last year’s victory in this race. Tony Carroll’s charge is a pound lower having had a light campaign to date. King Crimson and Essaka are also course and distance winners and the ability to handle this track should not be disregarded. Enthaar drops further down the weights but remains winless on Turf while Kodiac Express appears out of sorts.
