      Verdict

      All of these are fully exposed but if TED'S BROTHER can repeat the level of his latest performance when a solid second to Pick Your Battle at Ayr over this trip on quick ground then he could be the one. That was his best effort for some time and his last success, back in the summer of 2014, came over course and distance. He may not be the force of old but should give Milly Naseb a good spin. Iftikaar was much more like it last time after a series of low-key efforts and is respected whilst Lord Reason is the one to note in the market. A former inmate of both Hugo Palmer and John Ryan, he is now with John Butler whose fancied runners frequently tend to be the subject of market support. Zed Candy Girl usually runs her race and is also noted.
