      Verdict

      AQUA ARDENS went close to making a winning return to this venue when finding only Noble Citizen too good over course and distance last week. He had the re-opposing Warfare back in fourth and George Baker's charge can deservedly get his head back in front today. Penalised for an earlier win here, Mishrif could only manage fourth on his latest start, while Chrissycross also looks high enough in the weights now. Camachoice makes his Fibresand debut and has superior form to both Repetition and George Benjamin if handling the surface.
