      Verdict

      Reggae Star won a three-runner classified event at Chepstow last time and is hard to fancy on her earlier form in handicaps. Rebel Magic has every chance on last year's best efforts but has struggled so far this season while both Mr Fitzroy and Soaring Spirits were expected to do better on their latest outings. NOBLE GIFT failed to land a hat-trick when only sixth at Sandown last time. But he wasn't beaten far in a blanket finish and, dropping back down in class for this, Bill Knight's colt is fancied to come out best.
