        Verdict

        From a shortlist that contains Culcabock, Prince Of Pearls and Lanzlo, the vote goes to Lanzlo. The selection races here from the same mark as when winning at Perth in August and, even though he been beaten from revised marks since, those runs came in races that were probably better than this. With the handicapper giving him a chance again, he can go well. Turning to the others and Maconnor ran well behind Crystal d'Ainay at Uttoxeter in March but his last three efforts have not matched it. Tularch Ard looked progressive when scoring at Carlisle last time, but he has been off for 645 days now. San Dimas races here from a mark that is four pounds above that from which he won at Kelso in October 2003 but has achieved little since. Culcabock is probably capable of running fairly well here but he was beaten in a seller last time. Lago was awarded his Kelso win on the subsequent drug-related demotion of the original winner at Kelso in April and, even though he is better at trips shorter of the three miles he encountered that day, others are preferred. Finally, Prince Of Pearls showed improvement to score in a seller at Sedgefield last time and, while more is needed again, he can be given a chance in what is a modest heat. Which brings us back to Lanzlo. If he can back to the level of his Perth form, he looks to hold a good chance in a race where there are question marks against most of the participants.
