Verdict

Outlaw Torn went close at Southwell last week though does most of his winning at Wolverhampton and was well beaten over track and trip on his penultimate start. OUR KIM makes more appeal as he was beaten only a neck over course and distance last time having slipped down the weights. Queen Moon is another on the slide and Cockney Boy has placed off similar marks in the past but the remainder have shown little to recommend them lately.
