          Verdict

          No horse older than six has won this in the last 10 years. Fort Bastion has joined David O'Meara since landing last year's renewal when less than a length ahead of subsequent stablemate INGLEBY ANGEL (NAP). But the latter is much better off at the weights today and can take his revenge with a recent pipe-opener under his belt. Two For Two is another O'Meara runner but Don't Call Me is preferred only 1lb higher than his win at Ascot last season. Dream Walker makes most appeal of Brian Ellison's trio on his victory at Newmarket in November while Johnny Cavagin, Our Boy Jack and Comino have all proved best over 7f so far. 2010 winner Osteopathic Remedy could only manage fourth last year and is closely matched with fellow veteran Kiwi Bay on running here in August.
