      Verdict

      Excellent Puck is upped in class off a 4lb higher mark after winning over track and trip. Raven Ridge is unexposed but returned a losing favourite when only fourth at Newbury back in May and Ian's Memory is preferred stepping up in trip for his handicap debut. Rasameel never figured in better company at Goodwood last time and may finish closer but BERTIE MOON gets another chance. His amateur rider dropped her whip at Windsor last time and that run is best forgotten as he'd scored at the same track before that and is only 3lb higher today.
