      Verdict

      CLASSIC PALACE impressed when making all over course and distance last month and can make the most of the weight received from Sharp Rise, who alternates between hurdles and fences but is still on an upward curve and won't go down without a fight. The Irish raider may also have too much for Worcester runner-up Highpower and holds Tokyo Brown, who ran here on Saturday, on the form book.
