    Verdict

    Mister Arjay gets the vote here ahead of Kristensen, Grey Outlook and Kyber. Bryan Ellison's seven-year-old cruised to victory just nine days ago at Catterick and with today's step up in trip no problem, he looks sure to go well off this revised mark having won off 76 in the past. Kristensen has won twice over course and distance and Karen McLintock deserves plenty of respect as he is just three pounds above his highest winning mark. This quick ground suits and he should be there or thereabouts. Grey Outlook's only win came on soft ground and he should have come on for his recent outing over this course and distance in the race won by Kristensen. He has 3lb pull in the weights and stripping fitter today, looks sure to go closer. Kyber scored well last time out and has claims, however Mister Arjay was impressive nine days ago and can strike again whilst the iron is hot.
