        Verdict

        A wide open handicap rounds off the card and many would have chances on there best form but the principals look to be Polar Force, Tayif and Prince Arragon and the vote goes to Polar Force. The gelding from the Mick Channon yard is well in on his best form and he showed signs of a revival when fourth behind Tayif last time but he is better off with that rival here and with conditions in his favour he will be hard to beat. Tayif rates a big danger but he ran as if the handicapper had caught up with him when he was second last time out. Prince Arragon is another that could go well but he was well held behind Whippasnapper last time and he looks high enough in the weights. Of the remainder Illusive is on a handy mark and has a good apprentice booked so is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Polar Force
