        Verdict

        Yoshimi has won twice over 7f here and is 1lb lower than his last victory but stablemate Silver Dust hasn't been in the best of form. Asdaa won over a mile here last month, with Tommy G, who was on a four-timer, three lengths behind, and over slightly further at Wolverhampton on Tuesday for which he has a 5lb penalty. Stable companion OVERWRITE takes a drop in class and is 5lb lower than when landing a Class 2 handicap at Newmarket so gets the nod to get back on the winning trail. Six Strings continues to run well despite a big rise for completing a double earlier in the summer while Noble Crusade has won two of his five starts, both at Carlisle, and continues to make progress. Detective has won three of his last five on the latter track and is another going along nicely
