      Verdict

      The hat-trick beckons for BELROG in this. A winner over 2m at Wolverhampton last time, he scored over track and trip before that and doubts surround most of today's opposition. Spring Dixie ran up a sequence of seconds on Turf but finished last back on the all-weather when behind fifth-placed Grams And Ounces. Kelly's Finest may finish closer back over today's longer trip but Toptempo is struggling for form and the remaining pair make even less appeal.
