      Verdict

      Royal Bajan carried a heavy burden to victory at Brighton a fortnight ago but this is tougher and he's up another 3lb. Pucon is preferred as she made all over 6f here last time so the drop back in trip should be no problem. A 8lb rise proved beyond dual Brighton winner Excellent Aim last time while Irish Boy finished ahead of MILLION FACES when runner-up at Yarmouth last month. However, the latter had been off the track for over a year and she's fancied to the turn the tables and come out best with that run under her belt.
