      Verdict

      Isharah stayed on well in a similar race at Wolverhampton last time but may not be as effective on softer going. Siege Of Boston is an uncertain stayer and Oriental Tiger is not one to rely on. RALPHY LAD has shown nothing in two turf outings this season, but he has been racing at a higher level and this is his grade. He has form on softer going and ran up a hat-trick in similar contests last season. Kip ran with credit in a better race last time and can make the frame.
