Verdict

HIDDEN VERSE quickly returned to form despite not getting a great deal of room to work with late in the day when fourth at Bath (5.7f) 3 weeks ago. He earns the vote to come out on top, possibly at the chief expense of Windsor scorer Reporter. C&D winner Over Spiced should appreciate the return to this trip and completes the shortlist.
