        Verdict

        Hieronymus was in good form last summer but reappears on a slightly higher mark and hasn’t won for a while. We’ll take a chance on REVOLUTIONISE, who has slipped down the ratings a little and has a 7lb claimer on board as a bonus. Stuart Williams’ charge won on his last visit here. Aramis Grey has won over this trip but most of his runs lately have come over 6f. Bobby On The Beat has possibly been in the handicapper’s grip since completing a double here in February but Hello Zabeel is respected making his all-weather debut.
