      Verdict

      LEXINGTON FURY has gone close here in the past and may edge this having won a maiden race at Ffos Las last week. Dark Esteem won a maiden over track and trip in July while Arcadian Nights scored over 7f at Chepstow and is 6lb higher. Ford Madox Brown has won over the same distance here while Wurlitzer and Adaay Dream placed on their latest starts and the latter drops down in class.
