        Verdict

        A number in with chances but possibly Persario is the answer, with Thihn, Hand Chime and Jonny Ebeneezer others to consider. The selection is only lightly raced but ran a fair race at Doncaster last time following an eight-week absence. She should have more to come. Thihn is a course winner, admittedly on soft, but is capable on a going day. Hand Chime has place prospects while Jonny Ebeneezer likes it here and is, in the contest of the race on the best of his form, has a shout. Once again, not a straightforward event but we'll opt for the lightly-campaigned Persario.
