      Verdict

      Iskander can go in again, with Saros and Mobane Flyer the likely dangers. This should not take much winning and as Iskander has already proven his worth when driven out to beat Arry Dash at Nottingham, he is the one to beat again. Fifth in the big sales race at Doncaster two years ago, Kevin Ryan's charge has struggled with his handicap mark since as a result, and is only now starting to feel the benefit of a drop in the ratings. The faster ground and enterprising tactics by Neil Callan helped gain the day last time, and Robert Winston will hopefully inject some pace here as well in his follow-up bid. Saros got behind at Southwell in April, staying on into second behind Mission Affirmed, and needs more use made of him, while Mobane Flyer ran with credit when a close third at Haydock and should be right there at the end. Iskander did it well last time though and can give weight away to his rivals today.
