Verdict
There was a good whisper for Dissident before his Newmarket win on Saturday and he can score again with Arresting being among a number of interesting opponents. The selection clearly comes here in good heart and, with connections keen to strike while the iron is hot, he looks set to go well again. Linens Flame is a course and distance winner and could still be improving even though he's going up in the ratings. Arresting came good in maiden company last time and could make up into a really decent four-year-old, while Skelligs Rock has always been very highly-rated by his handler. Overall, though, we will side with Dissident.
