Verdict

RISK D'ARGENT's defeat of a couple of next-time-out winners at Uttoxeter appeals as the strongest piece of form on offer and he had an excuse for a slightly lesser effort at Fontwell a month ago. Lupus Regem is likely to surpass the level he achieved at Newcastle, while Fringill Dike deserves a mention as a bumper scorer.
