        Verdict

        ELSAAKB just held on to win at Kempton last time but drops in class for this and can go in again. Mossketeer won easily over 6f here recently but has an 11lb hike in the weights to contend with while Zalshah has gone back up 4lb for finishing second at Lingfield a fortnight ago. Dance Emperor drops back in distance for Ed Walker’s in-form yard while Blue Candy and Harbour Vision may be capable of better now handicapping for the first time.
