      Verdict

      Perennial Chester visitor Prairie Falcon heads the weights for this handicap over the two-mile trip and off an all-time low mark has to be respected, although recent form is a little alarming. The same cannot be said of Sir Mark Prescott's Unleash. The son of Benny The Dip has won his last two starts in handicaps at Leicester and Newcastle and should be up to defying a 6lb penalty for his most recent success. He gets the TEAMtalk vote. Other runners worthy of a mention include Mick Easterby's Trotter's Future who ran batter at Beverley last time, recent Bath winner Allez Mousson and front runner Spa Lane but it will be a surprise if this does not go to the Prescott runner.
