      Verdict

      DEEDS NOT WORDS is penalised and carries a big weight attempting to land a hat-trick on the back of a double on the all-weather. He may well succeed in this modest company. Frank Cool finally won a maiden when successful at Lingfield while New Rich has yet to win on Turf in 23 attempts. Something Lucky has won just the once since 2014 but Sixties Habana has tumbled down the weights since joining his current yard and will take advantage eventually.
