      Verdict

      Discay is 8lb higher than when winning at Musselburgh earlier in the month but should finish thereabouts nonetheless. King Of Paradise should also go well off his current mark as he steps up in distance. SWINGING HAWK won a higher grade handicap over 1m5f at Chester back in May. This is less competitive and he gets the vote to return to winning ways. Getabuzz and Caledonia arrive out of form and Captain Brown hasn't raced on the Flat since 2011.
