      Verdict

      John Gosden’s yard continues to notch up the winners at an impressive rate and MARHABA MILLIAR looks worth sticking with now handicapping having won both starts in novice company over today’s trip. He’s preferred to the other novice winners Topical and Roderick who scored at Thirsk and Ayr respectively and also go handicapping for the first time. Buckingham has won a handicap over track and trip, with the re-opposing Nayslayer back in third, though is 11lb higher today.
