      Verdict

      Trending has hit a rich vein of form and won over track and trip last time. But he has been raised a further 7lb and Logans Lad is upped a grade after scoring over 7f here. For Ayman was expected to do better than fifth at Chelmsford last time while Verus Delicia ran as though something was amiss here a fortnight ago. ARCHIE STEVENS was sent off 25/1 at Kempton recently but went close to winning with Only Ten Per Cent well behind. David Evans' charge looks set to get his head back in front off his current mark on that evidence.
