        Verdict

        Fourteenth had to work hard to land his maiden here over 1m2f last time and while there may be more to come over this longer trip, Sir Michael Stoute's colt looks plenty high enough in the weights for what he has achieved and preference is for Fretwork, who gets the vote ahead of Maid To Believe. The last mentioned has shown progressive form since being stepped up in trip this week and has to be respected, although he may prefer a softer surface. Beverly Hill Billy looks to be going the right way and could be of interest but is not certain to stay this far and of more interest may be Camps Bay, who is open to improvement after just five starts and should appreciate the longer trip today. The vote though goes to Fretwork, who probably found the going too testing at Leicester last time and looks worth another chance here.
