        Verdict

        Sagredo gets the confident nomination in this handicap with Top Mark and Casual Affair others to consider. The selection won in good style last time at Pontefract when beating John Dillon and this lightly-raced 3-year-old could be up to following-up with ground conditions in his favour. Casual Affair hasn't got his head in front yet but he shaped encouragingly on his first start for James Bethell last time over this course and distance. Top Mark has been knocking on the door of late and if he gets an easy lead then this frontrunner could be hard to peg back. Stravara is another with place prospects, but Sagredo looks to be on the upgrade and can win again.
