        Verdict

        Swift Approval had Mr Scaramanga back in third when winning last year’s renewal but hasn’t scored since. Keyser Soze returned to winning ways over track and trip last month when defeating the re-opposing Areen Heart with Swift Approval further behind and has been raised 5lb while Intransigent won a lower grade contest at Chester back in September and is 6lb higher on his return. TAKE THE HELM (NAP) won a handicap over course and distance at last year’s All-Weather Championships and returned to action last week with a decent third at the track behind Salateen. This looks less competitive and Brian Meehan’s charge is fancied to come out best.
