        Verdict

        Kyle Of Lochalsh, Patricia Philomena and Tojeneski look to have the best chances with the vote going to the last named. Of the field Tonjenski has the most consistent form and although it¿s been quite a while since we have seen him in the winners enclosure on the back of his last run when an eye catching second to Rare Coincidence at Catterick when only going down by a length. He looks to be off a winning mark here so is one to stay on the right side of. Kyle Of Lochalsh was a winner over hurdles on his penultimate start and again ran better than his position suggests when fourth of five at Hamilton last time out but was only beaten four lengths so is one to note in the market. Patricia Philomena has proven costly to follow of late and was a beaten favourite last time out. She has plenty of weight to carry here so maybe worth opposing. So for the winner we return to Tojenski
