        Verdict

        Dr Thong, Foley Prince and Evaluator look the three to concentrate on in this handicap and the confident vote goes to Dr Thong. The selection was a fair fourth behind Summon last time out and with this softer ground sure to suit despite top weight he will be hard to beat. Foley Prince rates the main danger on his best form but he just gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with him when third behind Spring Jim last time and for that reason he is opposed. Evaluator is another that could go well he won well last time out when defeating Here To Me but he has yet to prove he stays this far and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder had no chance at Royal Ascot last time out but will find this much easier so he is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Dr Thong.
