        Verdict

        Last year’s Falmouth Stakes winner VERACIOUS comes out best on these terms. She’s undergone wind surgery since last in action and is the one to beat if running anywhere near her mark on her reappearance. Final Song still has something to prove over this far while Festive Star returns to pattern company having won a handicap at Newbury last month. Farzeen and Foxtrot Lady have placed in Listed races this year and are preferred to Posted while the Haggas yard has a good record in this but Tomorrow's Dream and Wejdan have no easy task in this company.
