        In depth

        Verdict

        The 6lb penalty that Quantum Leap has to carry for winning a handicap over course and distance on Wednesday may just anchor Simon Dow's six-year-old and we prefer to side with Carrowdore, who gets the vote over Paragon Of Virtue. The selection was not suited by the slow pace when finishing strongly and just failing to catch Annishirani over course and distance at the beginning of the month. A 3lb rise for that is fair and Richard Hannon's colt looks the safest option. Paragon Of Virtue is similarly consistent but may be better over slightly further. College Delinquent has claims off his lightweight but is far from certain to stay the 1m2f trip and of more interest is Analyze, who returns to the flat having failed to sparkle over hurdles of late. Priors Dale and Ryan's Future are others worthy of a mention but we are happy to side with Carrowdore, who holds solid claims and deserves to win a race of this nature.
