      Verdict

      Tight Knit is not badly weighted if returning to his best. He should have come on for a recent outing on the Polytrack, his first since April. Blinkers are applied to Waverunner after another modest effort at Wolverhampton while Slipper Satin and Helmsley Flyer both look high enough in the handicap on the evidence of their recent form. RETUNTOBRECONGILL stands out as he forced the eventual winner, Dame Nellie Melba, to pull out all the stops over track and trip last week and James Givens' charge can go one better in this company.
