      Verdict

      Naxos has won twice on the Tapeta and placed at Newcastle last month but Burglar was still beaten five lengths when second at Newmarket. Austrian Theory wasn’t beaten far when fourth at Ayr and is preferred to Bizarre Law but SOTO SIZZLER (NAP) is at his best here and back on quicker ground and racing off a 6lb lower mark than when last successful, he gets the vote. Terwada was due to race in the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket yesterday and Percy Shelley has his second outing for new connections.
