    Verdict

    Uberman has shown nothing so far to suggest he can get involved but there is little between the remaining pair. Mackenberg edges it the weights but came up short when sent off odds-on at Musselburgh last time behind Paros. The latter is trained by Nicky Henderson and he runs CAPTAIN MORGS, who has been racing over further lately but found only the progressive Ajero too good when last seen over course and distance and will appreciate the underfoot conditions.
