        Verdict

        Secret Art is only 2lb higher than when scoring over track and trip in September while Yourartisonfire can race off a lower mark than when winning at Pontefract last season. Both have a recent run under their belts and could figure but EMERALD drops back down in class. A course and distance winner in October, Marco Botti’s charge may prove good enough. Simply Shining was placed at Doncaster recently and the winner has since gone in again but it’s been some time since George Cinq last won a handicap.
