        Verdict

        Alqhutub confirmed previous promise when quickening clear to win a Salisbury maiden in comfortable fashion last time and is open to further improvement but this represents a significant step up in class and he may be worth opposing at likely cramped odds. Zandicular has more on his plate than when landing a claimer last time while stablemate Oakley Rambo ruined his chance when refusing to settle on his latest outing and can't be backed with confidence while Fruit Of Glory has also been below par of late so TEAMtalk preference is for Lady Zonda. Mick Channon's filly found trouble in running before finishing an eye-catching fourth in a competitive Sandown handicap last week (both Impeller and Oakley Rambo behind and held) and is taken to gain compensation off the same mark.
