Timeform run the rule over the field for the Vista Panels handicap...

Angel Rock is not the most reliable but if he takes to first-time cheekpieces he could well improve his excellent strike rate even more. Flipando has to be
feared, while Pride of Kings is progressive and can finish in the money again.

Flipando is a tough and consistent performer in the main, and is capable of winning another contest such as this, granted luck in running.

Final Verse looked revitalised in the second half of last season and carried on the good work when second at Newmarket on his return. He was drawn out of it in Royal Hunt Cup and can't be ruled out here.

One Way Or Another was successful four times in Australia and came on for his first British start when beating Charlie Tipple by a head in a similar contest here twelve days ago. He may well progress again.

Angel Rock is a course-and-distance winner who has had his problems but is useful on his day and has very good strike rate. He has raced prominently and is proven over further and cheekpieces are tried here.

Foolin Myself is a lightly-raced type who ran well when fourth at Newbury on his return from injury. Plenty has gone wrong since though, and he lost his action at Epsom and was hampered at York, and has plenty to prove now.

Toto Syllachy is inconsistent and hasn't always looked the most straightforward horse. He was a good second to Tanto Faz at Ripon in May but that was on good to soft and it may be he would prefer more cut in the ground.

Mujaadel made a promising seasonal reappearance when fifth to Opus Maximus at Musselburgh. He hasn't built on that in two runs since though and it is likely that even his best form won't be good enough here.

Summer Gold is a capable front runner, and was third to Bold Cross here three weeks ago. However, this looks much stronger and she could be up against it, even if allowed to dictate.

Pride Of Kings has been progressive this year, winning a handicap at Nottingham in May and being placed behind some useful rivals on both starts since. He should be involved here.
