      Verdict

      IMAGINARY DIVA should have little problem getting his head in front once again with both Chimbonda and Officer Mor worth noting. The selection is only three pounds higher since winning at Southwell last time out and she still looks very much on the up grade. She has run well on this surface in the past and only has to return to form to land this handicap. Chimbonda is a little inconsistent in his races of late. He has shown good enough form to warrant respect but ran well below par last time out which raises a few doubts. Officer Mor was blinkered for the first time when catching the eye and finishing third at Lingfield last time out. That was an improved effort and after being lowered two more pounds he now enters calculations. But for the winner we return to Imaginary Diva.
