      Verdict

      Face The Facts finished ahead of Uae King when winning a maiden at Newbury last month but the latter was beaten further by JANSZOON when Charlie Appleby’s charge scored at Lingfield recently - he may come out best in a tight contest. Stone The Crows is another maiden winner that won nicely at Salisbury last time while Sofia's Rock finished clear of runner-up Wefait when landing a handicap at Kempton but is 9lb higher today. Additional headgear is added to Al Zaman’s tongue-tie after disappointing at Chester on his latest start.
