      Verdict

      Geezers Colours is bound to be popular with backers following his win at Wolverhampton last time but Karl Burke's colt faces a stiff task in reversing earlier course and distance form at the weights with Hucking Hero and Jim Best's colt gets the vote, with Dhhamaan rated the pick of the remainder. Yamanmickmccann has shown gradual improvement and Richard Hannon's colt has to be respected on his handicap debut following a maiden success over six furlongs at Kempton last time. Hieroglyph is held by the selection on running last time, while McConnell seems plenty high enough in the weights for what he has achieved. Clive Brittain's Dhhamaan looks to be going the right way and has to be respected but Hucking Hero has solid claims and he gets the vote.
