      Verdict

      Baileysgutfeeling won a handicap before landing a three-runner seller at Leicester and has switched yards. But Kempton novice winner MERLIN THE WIZARD is expected to improve further now handicapping and gets the vote to continue winning ways. Tollard Royal returned a beaten favourite on his reappearance and has undergone a breathing operation subsequently while dual Polytrack winner Woodstock is preferred to Frequent Flyer.
