      Verdict

      Day Of The Eagle has been raised 6lb after ending a long losing run with a success at Wolverhampton but WE'LL SHAKE HANDS' winning form at Haydock looks stronger, despite the narrow winning margin. Karl Burke's charge gets the vote to defy a 3lb higher mark. Dancin Alpha was still well beaten when third at Wetherby a week ago and Green Zone has failed to figure since landing a higher grade contest at Newmarket in August.
