      Verdict

      Acting Talent ran well behind the in-form Political Policy at Dundalk last time. But the Irish raider is giving plenty of weight to the younger Parkhill Star, a close-up fourth over 6f here three weeks ago. Wings Of Fire will likely improve on his debut fourth at Lingfield but it would be no surprise if one of the newcomers proved good enough. MUSTAJJID makes his belated debut and Roger Varian's half-brother to the smart Bonnie Brae is preferred to Elusive George and gets a speculative vote.
