      Verdict

      Unicorn Reward is in a rich vein of form right now and, off just a 2lb higher mark than for his latest success at Chepstow, he is difficult to oppose with Honorine and Ice Palace rated the main dangers. The selection has won his last four starts and has risen 16lbs as a result but the handicapper may not have caught up with Richard Hannon's colt yet and he has to be the choice to complete the five timer. Top weight Harb is gradually coming down the handicap and has to be respected along with Honorine, another consistent performer. Chetak has been given a short break since his most recent start and is another worthy of a mention along with the lightly raced Ice Palace, who is open to more improvement than most but Unicorn Reward gets the vote.
