        Verdict

        QELAAN came good at Folkestone last time out and is taken to follow up at the expense of Squad and Yvonne Evelyn. The selection broke her maiden tag on her latest start and connections are keen to get another run into her before the handicapper gets a chance to reassess her rating. She has conditions in her favour once again and with luck in running she will take all the beating. Squad has hit form of late and was not beaten far while trying to follow up from his Brighton win at Lingfield last time out. He is two pounds higher in the weights for his troubles but can once again enter the frame. Yvonne Evelyn is improving with race experience and ran a personal best at Lingfield last time out after finishing third to Some Sunny Day and another good run can be expected. Qelaan looks a class above her rivals and takes preference.
