      Verdict

      Sark is unproven over the trip but Second Serve has leading claims with a reproduction of his earlier second over 1m4f at York. Windsor winner Michael's Mount was well beaten behind Paling, due to run in the previous race, at Brighton last time so another chance goes to AL KHAFJI. The latter was sent off favourite when only fourth on his reappearance at Kempton but better is expected today with that run under his belt. Chelsea's Boy and Nodachi go handicapping for the first time in this and neither are easily written off in a tight contest.
