      Verdict

      Run To Fly has a penalty for last week's victory at Plumpton, but went close off a higher mark last year and should make a bold bid to follow up. Preference, however, is for KILVERGAN BOY as he showed better form when winning at Cartmel in August and handles today's quick ground. Witch's Hat and Lambro River were both placed over fences earlier this year and are making their seasonal debuts, but Just Playfull is hard to fancy having failed to complete on his last two outings.
