        Verdict

        Plenty with claims in this but LIVING LEADER overcame unfavourable terms to beat higher-rated horses in a claimer over track and trip last time and gets a speculative vote. Gigawatt has a shout raised 4lb for a win at Wolverhampton and Al's Memory won here before going close again at Wolverhampton with Rememberance Day behind. Polar Kite suffered a narrow-margin defeat at Kempton last time and has a shout while Bertie Blu Boy arrives in good form but is upped in class.
