        Verdict

        The Prescott yard is back in action and the winners are starting to flow. Trouble And Strife would be the one on his form from last season but both starts this term have been lacklustre and it's best to await a return to form. Dono Di Dio has obvious credentials with two wins and six seconds from his last nine starts and handled this trip well enough for the first time when a solid second at Salisbury last month. He should be in the mix. Mandalyan has consistent figures but remains unproven at the trip whereas MACHINE LEARNER put a quiet spell behind him when a good second over course and distance this month and a similar effort would see him in the shake-up. Emenem, a decent fourth in that contest, is consistent and respected.
