      Verdict

      KENTFORD LEGEND looked as though he needed a greater test of stamina when staying on over the minimum trip at Worcester and the lack of serious opposition suggests he can gain his first success. Volio Vincente will probably find this too short after failing to score in 14 starts between the flags and in a Newton Abbot bumper while Mixed Meaning has never started less than 100/1 and been beaten a distance in all of them. Vision Of Lights has shown a glimmer of ability which may be enough to claim second spot.
