        Verdict

        Times Review is selected ahead of Almaty Express and the in-form Henry Tun, while Alexia Rose represents good value for each-way punters to bear in mind, as she has now dropped to a very favourable mark. The worry with the last named is the in-and-out form of her stable's runners. Therefore, a careful eye on the betting is advised where she is concerned. Henry Tun has been revitalised of late and should again run his race. However, he faces a stiff test on these terms and faces a tough task this afternoon. Almaty Express makes her course debut after a below par run at Wolverhampton 10 days ago. He had previously been in good heart and the change of scenery may well spark a revival in him. Nevertheless, Times Review just edges the vote when the best of his recent form is taken into account. A truly-run five furlongs is an ideal test for the five-year-old, whose jockey's claim virtually wipes out his rise in the weights for a convincing win last time out.
