        Verdict

        Whinging Willie has won one of these events before and bids for a hat-trick under a penalty. But BALLYGLASHEEN went close at Kempton under Isabel Williams last time and gets the nod dropping down a grade. Classic Mission was beaten only a head at Lingfield on his latest start and Obboorr was placed over track and trip in an amateu'rs event earlier this month. Michelle Bryant teamed-up with Paddy Butler to win last year's renewal so Athenian Garden could go well.
