        Verdict

        Pixeleen deserves a change of luck but ICE AGE battled hard to keep her at bay at Windsor and Eve Johnson Houghton's three-year-old is only a pound worse off and has the greater scope. Upstaging certainly wasn't winning out of turn at Epsom so should be thereabouts again but easier going would have suited Free Zone, who is also high enough in the weights now. Wiley Post looks the pick of Richard Hannon's two runners but has only won over 5f so far.
