        Verdict

        Aston Cantlow is still a maiden but has few miles on the clock and an absence is rarely a problem for one from his yard. LOCHNAGAR was returning from a lay-off when finishing tailed off here last month but performed much better when third at Taunton and should be cherry-ripe now. This looks within his capabilities, though Canadian Diamond hasn't been disgraced in two runs at Kempton since winning at Taunton. Wetherby fourth Fingers Crossed has scope while Thundering Home won here in 2013, though is still 11lb higher.
