        Verdict

        A maximum field to end the days sport and winner finding gets no easier. If he had been better drawn Royal Spin may have been the selection, as he is lightly raced and is open to plenty of improvement, unlike the majority of his rivals. He beat a 62-rated rival last time and he doesn't look harshly treated off just a 4lb higher mark. Roy Mcavoy will be more at home over this trip having found six-furlongs too sharp last time, while Sounds Lucky is interesting, as he is having his first outing over this trip since winning at Yarmouth back in May of 2001. Although he is off a career high mark now, he is still one to be interested in. Night Shift Blue's has become disappointing, but it is possible that the return to this trip may rekindle him, while the well handicapped Illusive finds winning difficult, but this big field will suit him and if on a going day, is capable of a bold showing. A chance is taken with Mush to follow up his win here last month. He had previously filled the runner-up spot behind Border Edge, to whom he was giving 9lbs and should have no trouble reversing the form on these revised terms.
