        Verdict

        A wide open sprint handicap with Talbot Avenue likely favourite vafter an excellent second at Goodwood last time out with the form of the race working out well since. Little Edward was disappointing last time however remains lightly raced and open to further improvement. Zargus has always been held in high regard by connections and has been highly tried this season. he wasn't suited by Goodwood last time and this track should suit better.
