      Verdict

      Envision is in good heart at present and he is preferred to Piano Player and Nanton. Officially better in than if this were a handicap, Envision has won twice at Epsom in recent weeks and with Ryan Moore aboard again on this occasion, he looks to have all the ticks in the right boxes. Piano Player won a claimer at Lingfield albeit in a very slow time. He is not the most straight forward of customers but Shane Kelly is likely to make his mind up for him at the earliest opportunity. Nanton is proven on the surface but does have to reverse Epsom form with our selection. Scutch Mill has some pieces of form on Lingfield's all-weather track but has it to do on turf efforts. Croft and Earth Master look hard to fancy. Envision is in form, handles the ground and should appreciate the trip and these are good enough virtues for us.
