        Verdict

        Chin Wag is well treated by the conditions of this contest and gets the verdict ahead of Lazy Darren and Oscarshall. Karl Burke's charge is rated 73 and ran up to that mark at Kempton last time out when finishing a close up fourth in a competitive handicap. He gets weight today from mainly inferior rivals and should be capable of taking advantage. Lazy Darren ran well in a hot Newmarket handicap last week and should be thereabouts, but may struggle to give ten pounds to the selection. Meanwhile Oscarshall is from a yard going well and would have chances on some of his earlier form. Of the others Snow Dancer has bits and pieces of form this season to suggest he could be in the shake up. Howver Chin Wag does appear on the way back to form and he can take advantage of his low weight.
