        Verdict

        Quiet Traveller showed progressive form last term to win three handicaps and holds verdicts over both Ballyhurry and Ambushed on recent outings. Linda Perratt's charge should give another good account as long as conditions don't get too testing. Ambushed has gone up 8lb for his Hamilton success last month and now looks too high in the weights but Bitter sweet is on a fair mark and should be all the sharper for her Goodwood third last week.
