      Verdict

      WALKING ON CLOUDS completed a double over today’s trip at Southwell before going close again over 7f. He gets another chance back over his winning distance. Shalaa Asker also won at Southwell last month and has been in the mix subsequently while Beneficiary is fitted with blinkers having gone close here in the past. Jkr Cobbler won a classified race at the track recently while Mighty Gurkha slides further down the weights.
