        Verdict

        Sleepy Blue Ocean has yet to take advantage of his much lower Turf mark though he did run a bit better at Haydock on Saturday. Only Ten Per Cent is 2lb lower than his last victory at Sandown though that was in September and he's been out of form subsequently. Argent Touch has won once in 27 starts and that was at Southwell so in an uninspiring contest it's HARDY BLACK (NAP) who has to be the selection as he's gradually improved this summer since dropping down to sprints and is just 3lb higher than his victory at Wetherby last month.
