      Verdict

      Red Verdon returns to handicap company for this. He won a Listed race over today’s trip at Doncaster during the summer when King's Advice was second though the latter re-opposes on better terms today. Hasanabad finished well behind the above pair at Doncaster though has won over hurdles subsequently and Timoshenko has also scored over timber this year. Nate The Great has slipped down the weights but hasn’t raced since June and the unexposed KINGSWEAR (NAP) looks the one to side with. He returned to action with a third over 1m4f at Kempton and the half-brother to three smart stayers including Dartmouth should relish this longer trip.
