        Verdict

        A few runners here out of sorts at present and it could be a chance for Who's Winning to finally get his head in front, Pieter Brueghel and Whitbarrow are two others to note. Brendan Powell's six-year-old has finished runner up in two decent enough class four events at Brighton and Warwick and as a consequence has risen slightly in the weights. However this does look to be a less taxing affair and he could gain an overdue success. Pieter Brueghel hasn't won for over two years, but there have been signs of a form revival and he has slipped down to a very tempting mark. Whitbarrow enjoyed tremendous succes earlier in the season and the last two efforts haven't been too bad. He may still be a little high in the weights, but could still play a part in the finish. Rydal is another that should be involved, but the rest look right out of form and so we return to Who's Winning for the selection.
