        Verdict

        KOMMANDER KIRKUP finished clear of the rest when runner-up to Danzeno at Redcar in October. The latter made a winning return this year so the form looks solid and Michael Dods' charge gets the nod ahead of the more-exposed Highland Acclaim. The latter ran well in fifth behind higher rated horses in a Newmarket conditions event last time which is much stronger form than Naggers' second in a maiden race at Pontefract. More Beau went backwards in the same race at Pontefract but still makes more appeal than the remainder.
