    Verdict

    Both runners ran over 2m here last time. The Road Home won a maiden by 10 lengths and is far less exposed than his much older rival but SILVER CONCORDE was a course and distance winner in November and had some cracking form in Ireland before that. Keith Dalgleish’s 10-year-old can give the weight away.
