        Verdict

        Mount Hesse has been lightly campaigned but remains unexposed and is on to the hat-trick after handicap wins at Doncaster and Salisbury. There should be more to come from Geoff Wragg's charge who appeared to idle when scoring on the latter occasion and is the TEAMtalk pick to defy a subsequent 6lb rise. Ho leng is only 3lb higher compared to his course and distance win in late September but flopped last time and would prefer a faster surface to show his best. Parting Shot only just held on over 9f at Redcar last time having been clear at the distance so should be well suited by the drop in trip while the consistent Katiypour remains fairly treated. Both have place claims but recent winners Qualitair Wings and Rose Of America now look in the handicapper's grip.
