Verdict

Art Scholar bids for his fifth win in six starts after scoring at Doncaster on Thursday. Michael Appleby has chosen to run him under a heavy burden here rather than wait for the inevitable hike in the weights and it could pay off. However, LORD RAGLAN did well to finish third in a conditions race at York last week considering the unfavourable terms and he's finally back on a winning mark back in handicap company. He gets the vote with Goodwood winner Pandorica unproven on today's going and Number Theory also posting his best effort so far on soft ground at Chester three weeks ago. Nobunaga looks best of the rest.
