      Verdict

      Haydock winner Mythical City defied a 6lb rise to complete a double at Ripon last time but faces a further 9lb hike in the weights. Character Onesie is penalised for landing a lower grade contest at Hamilton last week and First Dream has something to prove over today's trip having run wide at Chelmsford in April and the blinkers are back on today. But FELIX DE VEGA ran his best race of the year so far when third at Redcar a week ago and racing off the same mark in this, Mick Easterby's charge is taken to open his account.
