        Verdict

        There are many in with chances in this handicap to close the card and from a shortlist of Gayanula, Raquel White, Thornaby Green and ALBERTS STORY, we will side with the last mentioned. Richard Fahey's five-year-old has been campaigned over hurdles this winter, but he returned to the level at Lingfield last time when he wasn't beaten far in fourth behind Chalice Welcome, and a reproduction of that effort should see him go close today. Gayanula is lightly-raced and Julie Camacho's filly only found the one too good at Southwell last time in a race won by Merrion Tiger. The horse that finished third in that race has since been out and disappointed, so the form of that run has taken a knock. Raquel White won well here last time and she does appear to be progressing nicely with her racing, so she is certainly another to consider. Thornaby Green is a capable performer on his day, but he has disappointed on his last two runs and he is thoroughly exposed. A chance is taken on Alberts Story who gets the tentative vote.
