        Verdict

        A chance is taken here with Rainbow Queen, who missed last season but was a smart juvenile, she can land this handicap from Bishopric and Dunaskin. The fact that Michael Stoute has kept this filly in training as a four-year-old is a tip in itself. She was well beaten on a her reappearance here in July, but is undoubtedly better than that form suggests and she should go close from a decent handicap mark. Dunaskin has clearer form credentials having landed a valuable handicap at Haydock last time, beating Coat Of Honour by a comfortable length and looks set to go close in his bid for a hat-trick of wins. Bishopric finished stone cold last at Haydock last time, but went off far too fast from a bad draw. He is better judged on his previous victory at the same track when accounting for some seasoned performers. The best of the remainder could be course and distance winner Ionian Spring, however Rainbow Queen could turn out to be listed class and is given our vote.
