      Verdict

      Prayer Matt is 0-11 but was well supported when third at Leicester last time. Bonita B has won twice on the all-weather but is 0-18 on Turf and conceding weight all round. IMPERIAL KHAN has placed a couple of times and is probably still unexposed in handicaps. David O’Meara’s gelding is preferred to the Musselburgh runner-up Ballistic Berry. Tiberio Smile looks the pick of the remainder.
