      Verdict

      SURREY BLAZE continues to defy the handicapper and is upped a further 8lb today having landed a hat-trick with his latest success at Chelmsford. But he scored with plenty in hand last time and looks worth sticking with. Battle Lines was placed yet again when runner-up here recently and Sociologist may prove a bigger threat now handicapping for the first time along with Verstappen. We Are The World steps up in distance on his reappearance having won over a mile at Kempton last year.
