    Verdict

    MASKED IDENTITY has won all three starts since reunited with Josephine Gordon with his last couple of wins coming on the Tapeta at Wolverhampton and Southwell. There looks more to come and he can defy a 3lb rise. Star Shield beat Vindobala over course and distance before the latter won over 7f here while Teston showed signs of a resurgence when second at Kempton and gets a change of headgear.
