        Verdict

        Flying Tackle ran a blinder from a poor draw last time and is the selection once again here, with Desraya and Mallia the others to consider. The fancy is an infrequent winner, but now that he has discovered some winning form, it may well pay to follow him. Drawn in stall one here, he will take all the beating with Joe Fanning taking over from Chris Catlin in the plate. Mallia is on a handy mark and is another worthy of consideration, especially as he has won before over course and distance. Desraya is also a course and distance winner and should run a big race, but Flying Tackle was most impressive last week and is our selection to back that up with another success today.
