        Verdict

        Lytham gets a tentative vote over the likes of Champagne Shadow, Graft and Laggan Bay. The Mark Wallace inmate does at least have a bit more scope than most of his rivals and has been placed on his last two starts, including at Wolverhampton last time on what was his first outing for the stable. The ex-Irish three-year-old was only beaten a head by Wrenlane, and the step up in trip is sure to be in his favour. Champagne Shadow also started his career off in Ireland but has had many opportunities to shine on his visits to Lingfield and has failed to take them. However, his stable did win this race last year with Cold Turkey, so he should not be totally ruled out as he bids to lose his maiden tag. Graft returns to the all-weather after a fruitless Turf campaign this year and has an absence to overcome, while Laggan Bay has been racing over further without success. None make as much appeal as Lytham who should also be noted if sent over hurdles this winter.
