        Verdict

        Recent winners Ali Bruce, Threezedzz and Fort McHenry are the three to concentrate on her, with the former just getting the vote. Gary Moore's gelding showed very little in two national hunt flat races, but subsequently showed improved form in a seller at Leicester and a claimer at Ayr, before landing an apprentice event on the fibresand. This event is not the strongest and the selection could be capable of going close. Fort McHenry has to shoulder top-weight, but did win nicely at Yarmouth last week and looks set for another bold showing under Frankie Dettori. Threezedzz comes here at the top of his game having dished out a five length beating to Hand Chime.He has never raced on the Polytrack before, but if he does handle the surface he will be a danger to all. Nearly A Fool is another that can be given a squeak, but in what is a very open contest, Ali Bruce is given a tentative vote.
