    Verdict

    TWELVE STRINGS gets a tentative vote. He's been well backed on more than one occasion since scoring at Haydock back in April but has Seven Veils behind when third at Epsom last time and gets one more chance. Recent winners Arley Hall and Maybeagrey couldn't cope with a rise in the weights when beaten in the same race at Ripon last month when the latter finished runner-up while Croftamie has his first run for new connections having won a lowly claimer at Catterick last time for Mark Johnston. The latter runs the so far disappointing Rythmic in this while Mistress Of Rome continues to find at least one too good.
