        Verdict

        A particularly poor event and the vote goes to Blakeset in the hope that he retains enough of his old ability to prevail. Formerly a useful all-weather handicapper before being lightly campaigned in the States last year, the eight-year-old ran only moderately on his return to these shores in a claimer here in February. However, the son of Midyan is entitled to improve for his first start for six months and is thrown-in on his old form so is given another chance in this weaker event. Capital Access and Pips Song have claims on the pick of their form but neither have been showing enough of late to warrant support so Octennial rates the biggest danger to the selection. The four-year-old hails from an in-form yard and shaped with promise following a break when second in similar company at Leicester last week.
