    Verdict

    Another small-field tactical battle in prospect. Zagato will be popular after an easy Thirsk novice success but this looks harder off topweight. Il Bandito has been placed on all seven starts following his juvenile debut and, although perhaps not entirely straightforward, he usually runs his race. Magical Land has proved a wee bit disappointing this season and is now equipped with first-time cheekpieces. DICKENS won his race the last day in the stewards' room but it was still a good effort and he's coming along steadily. He receives considerable weight all round and gets the vote in a race that looks to be without a confirmed front runner.
