        Verdict

        Roy Rocket is upped in class off a higher mark having landed a double on fast ground at Brighton last month. Oracle Boy scored over today's trip at Wolverhampton in October but is 6lb higher on his return while Bold Runner failed to cope with a penalty last time having won at Kempton earlier. Thomas Blossom has won twice on the all-weather this year but scored at Brighton off a much lower mark last term while HIGHSALVIA COSMOS is only 2lb higher than when successful at Kempton in February. Placed in soft going when trained in France last year, Mark Hoad's charge gets a speculative vote.
