      Verdict

      Petit Ecuyer has been running reasonably well over hurdles including at Sandown on Friday. He won a little race here last April and must be a threat to all in this lowly handicap. ROSOFF last won a race at Lingfield over a year ago and struggled at the weights after a rise in the ratings. He's gradually been dropping and can now race from the same mark as when successful so is handed the vote. Persian Herald has never won over jumps and, though dropping in class here, offered little encouragement at Leicester last time. Mr Muddle has only run twice over fences and shown nothing while Tchang Goon, though consistent enough, is very moderate and a long way out of the handicap.
