        Verdict

        Stag Hill finished a length ahead of Elegant Ophelia when third at Kempton a fortnight ago. But CABUCHON's form looks superior given he was narrowly beaten at the same track last week by the progressive The Ginger Berry, who was landing a hat-trick. David Evans' charge has the beating of Bennelong on collateral form and gets the vote. Standing Strong has slipped to a decent mark and should confirm earlier running with Salient.
