      Verdict

      TOMMY DOCC was well-backed to make a winning return over 5f at Southwell and duly obliged by four lengths going away. He should stay this longer trip on that evidence. Jockey bookings suggest Wolverhampton fourth Gabrial The Tiger is preferred to handicap debutant and stablemate Billy Bond but Agadoo was raised 12lb for winning a handicap at Leicester in October and X Raise is preferred. The latter won at the first time of asking when successful at Carlisle and should get the better of Beach Action.
