      Verdict

      Partner is the highest rated on official figures but failed to take advantage of similar conditions when runner-up in a claimer at Catterick last time. A chance is taken on SELECT COMMITTEE instead as he's been running well in handicaps and a repeat of his narrow defeat at Beverley last month would be good enough to score in this company. Go Go Green has a chance at the weights but arrives out of form and the same comment applies to Crimea whose best runs so far this season have been on the Polytrack.
