      Verdict

      Blacklister has recorded back-to-back wins at Haydock and Carlisle but had less than a lengths to spare over Tomahawk Kid in the first of those and Ian Williams' charge is now a massive 9lb better off so should turn the tables. Furiant could go well back in the right grade but is hard to catch right. Clever Bob's win came in a very modest maiden at Lingfield, however, while Wetherby scorer Simply Clever bombed out next time at Hamilton. It's about time COSMIC STORM was winning one of these and maybe the drop back to a mile will see the Doncaster second get her head in front.
