        Verdict

        Most of these win in their turn and this may fall the way of BORN TO FINISH for Jamie Osborne. The gelding has been knocking very loudly on the door the past twice and should give us a good spin with Daniel Tudhope a strong booking. He is up 4lb for a narrow defeat latest but that is the way of things in the handicapping world. In contrast, Ninjago is steadily descending the handicap and should prove competitive off 74 - his lowest-ever career mark - after a fair effort last time when runner-up to Mujassam at Hamilton. Glorious Politics has a chance if able to repeat his useful all-weather form on turf, whilst Meshardal is a solid sort in such contests. The three-year-olds are hard to assess, Razin' Hell is best at Southwell but Nibras Again is far better than his latest effort and De Sousa is booked.
