      Verdict

      Stuart Williams' horses are flying and LORD RAPSCALLION reverted to this surface to land a course and distance handicap earlier this month. He only scrambled home by a short-head but is up just 4lb and has won off much higher marks in the past. Ivatheengine was in fine form when last seen though that was in the summer of last year but Maysong ran his best race for a long time when narrowly beaten at Kempton last week. G'daay completed a track and trip double before finding Class 3 company beyond him at Lingfield while Barging Thru, a debut winner here, looked a couple of pounds high on the latter track after scoring over this trip at Wolverhampton. Windseeker had been racing in better company before finding trouble in-running back there 10 days ago.
