    Verdict

    Very few of these have been in action recently and it's a difficult race to fathom. Master Of Finance made all over 1m2f on heavy ground at Pontefract earlier this month, repeating last year's success. He hasn't proved he stays this far but will enjoy the conditions as will Cymro, whose three career victories have been on ground with give though all were over 1m2f. Kinema is 11lb higher than his victory at Carlisle in June but he continued to run very well in similar grade to this. Swaheen looked a real mudlark when landing a very nice prize over 1m6f at York in October and if Julie Camacho has him ready he'll be a threat to all. BUONARROTI has only won once but his second to Litigant in the November handicap at Doncaster was a superb effort and with conditions in his favour he's taken to make a successful return to action. Gabrial's King won a Listed contest at Chester in August but will need a victory here to get a run in the Chester Cup so he'll be ready for this.
