          Verdict

          Monsieur Fantaisie was narrowly beaten at Bath last week and finished ahead of Glamorous Force at the same track earlier while Secretfact also arrives on the back of a better effort over a longer trip at Bath. Hope Probe placed over 6f here last time but FOSSOS was beaten less than a length over track and trip at the same fixture and is taken to get his head back in front confirming latest running with Edge Of The Bay in the process.
