        Verdict

        Corn Snow's win on the Fibresand at Southwell was easily his best effort and he may favour that surface while Mixed Message was below par back on Turf last time after also scoring at Southwell. Polytrack winner Red Eight is preferred dropping down a grade but both Curl and Chant look high enough in the weights at present. Handicap debutants, Bitusa and Bapak Besar, will need to step up on their recent efforts but ARGAKI finished closer on his comeback outing. The latter is also handicapping for the first time today and he gets the nod with Silvestre De Sousa taking over the reins.
