        Verdict

        The finale looks tough to sort out and it is more in hope than optimism that we row in with Anna Walhaan, ahead of Pango and African Sahara. The latter has topweight to overcome but connections are hoping that he runs another big race before maybe giving him a rest. The four-year-old was going to be aimed at the Cambridgeshire but will be saved for next year now. His effort at Sandown was all guts and Debbie Mountain's charge deserves to be in the frame at least. Pango is normally held up and has been found wanting at the business end this term-more positive tactics may bring about the required improvement before the season is out. Ian Williams has his team in fine form, and Anna Walhaan showed on his latest outing at Brighton that he can add to the stable's haul. The gelding overcame a high draw to get within three-parts of a length of course specialist Ailincala, helped no doubt by the handicapper finally dropping him to a reasonable mark in the 70's. A similar effort here should see Anna Walhaan go close and as stated earlier he is a hopeful selection.
