        Verdict

        SERENITY NOW won over the track and trip in July and was in the process of a big run over timber at Ludlow in March when falling. He gets the vote with his young rider's claim a bonus as Deep Resolve is 5lb higher than when landing a lesser-grade handicap here the same month. What Usain has won five times on the all-weather but doesn't have a good record here unlike his stable companion The Lock Master, who has eight course victories to his credit. Vercingetorix is very moderate and will probably do better back over hurdles.
