      Verdict

      A classy event headed by the useful Grey Eminence. His win over course and distance when beating Patsy's Double reads well enough, but more of a worry is his draw. Palanzo has taken a while to slip down the ratings and is not without a chance off his present mark (98), while Damalis, who goes well here is interesting now he tackles this trip for the first time. The in -form Deceitful and Inchdura are others who are worthy of consideration.
