        Verdict

        Several of these have claims including Catmint and Baltic King but narrow preference is for Majestic Times, who has more going for him than his main rivals. Tim Easterby's colt showed improved form when running out the comfortable winner of a Newcastle handicap at the beginning of the month and, although beaten off a 6lb higher mark at Hamilton next time, that was on a softer surface. Today's going should be ideal and the son of Bluebird looks well enough treated to take a hand. He gets the vote to return to winning ways over Baltic King, who lacks a recent outing. Catmint has claims at the weights but has yet to prove her effectiveness over six furlongs, while Tyranny is dropping back in distance having win over seven furlongs at Lingfield last time. Alan Berry's Telepathic looks the best of the remainder and may appreciate the drop in class today.
