        Verdict

        Habbad disappointed on his reappearance at Chepstow but better is expected here and he’s preferred to stablemate Zebulon. Fastnet Spin wasn’t beaten far in a small field at Windsor last time while Revel should be thereabouts and finished ahead of Native Soldier at Sandown last month. Kempton fourth Know The Truth progresses with every run and could be well treated but SO HOITY TOITY (NAP) could be another for Silvestre De Sousa as the French import made an encouraging start for Hughie Morrison at Newmarket and has been dropped a pound since.
