Though below par the last twice, the veteran VERHOYEN has slipped to a dangerous mark and will have every chance if reproducing form such as his close third in a big-field Naas handicap in August. Prime Sign shaped as though the return to this trip would be ideal when sixth in a 6f Naas handicap on her latest start in May and she still has low mileage. The Andrew Oliver-trained filly is second choice ahead of recent Bellewstown winner Mogwli and Zipster.
