Verdict
Clever Divya debuts on Polytrack having popped up in a classified event at Southwell when starting 50/1. Stablemate Great Expectations continues to slide down the weights along with Tidal's Baby, though the latter has not run since June. Burauq was placed yet again when runner-up at Lingfield and can race off the same mark but MULTI QUEST went close at Chelmsford in October and a couple of subsequent winners have come out of the race. He gets the vote with handicap newcomers Blanco and Mistry others to note.
