        Verdict

        Qaffaal and Chester Street arrive on the back of course and distance wins but both step up in class. HAAF A SIXPENCE (NAP) also won a lower grade handicap at Lingfield last time but is perfectly at home at this level and is taken to defy a 3lb rise for his latest success. My Target is another capable in this company having won a Class 2 contest at Lingfield earlier in the month though he was behind runner-up Chevallier here just 10 days ago. Today’s trip is a problem for recent 7f winners Firmdecisions and Al Khan while Iberica Road has only won a maiden race so far.
