        Verdict

        Aircon who has form on all types of ground is taken to get back on the winning trail he was sent off favourite last time out at Warwick for a similar race but slipped up, he should have this race run to suit and will be hard to beat. Judaic Ways looks the main danger he runs his best races when he is fresh is well in on his best form and has conditions to suit. Black Bullet is a hard pulling sort but he goes well on soft ground and if anything happened to the principals he could benefit. Iro Origny has disappointed since returning from injury. Twice As Good could also go well with the stable in good form despite top weight.
