        Verdict

        With Kieren Fallon staying on at Chepstow to ride in a Banded Stakes race is a pretty big tip in itself so, accordingly, we are going to side with Attorney in the finale. The Derek Shaw-trained gelding will be seeking his third-straight win and, much as his last two victories have come on all-weather surfaces, he has form on soft and looks set to run a big race. Aintneccesarilyso and Bali-Star, who likes it here, are ones to consider, while the booking of Darryll Holland for Milton Bradley's Flying Faisal also catches the eye. Henry Tun has been holding his form well of late and should give you a good run for your money but, overall, it's hard to get away from the Fallon factor so Attorney gets the vote.
