        Verdict

        This looks an open race but Academy is the selection to see off the challenges of Dugdale and Little Tobias. Academy ran well behind the progressive Dorothy's Friend at Newcastle last time and looks the one here on a track that suits. A course and distance winner, Academy is consistent, and although the stable has been struggling lately, our selection has still maintained a good level of form. Dugdale ran well enough behind Phamedic last time, with Mama Jaffa behind, and the claims of Dugdale can be assessed best by the form of Mama Jaffa who goes in the 2.30 race. Little Tobias is back on the flat after an outing over hurdles and could go well while Leophin Dancer is interesting after making a winning appearance over hurdles. A fascinating race and we will take a chance on Academy.
