      Verdict

      Watered Silk returned to the winning trail at Chester last time and there should be more to come from him this year. Roberto Pegasus posted a better effort when runner-up in soft ground at Windsor last month but there's a suspicion he'd prefer a bit more cut while hurdles winner Luggers Hall is lightly-raced on the Flat and should go well having finished second at Chester last time. However, a step up to middle-distances has seen THE HOLYMAN in a better light as he made all on both occasions when recording a double on the Polytrack at Lingfield earlier this year and he's taken to transfer that improvement to this surface.
