        Verdict

        In this competitive affair Bollywood gets a narrow vote over Scroll and Song Of Silence.Bollywood ran no sort of race last time out when seventh at Wolverhampton last week. He was having his first run for Mark Hoad after being claimed out of Michael Jarvis's yard following a win at Lingfield and raced keenly on the wide outside to halfway but had come off the bridle by the home turn and was being driven along at that stage. That wasn't his true running and we are sure we will see a better performance this afternoon. Song Of Silence was just pipped by the progressive Royal Reservation last Saturday and must hold place claims again this afternoon. Meanwhile Scroll has a bit to find with Song Of Silence but is certainly going the right way. Lenoir, the mount of Dane O'Neill, can also be given a chance on recent efforts, but if Bollywood can put that last run behind him he could land the spoils.
