      Verdict

      Almohandesah has struggled at this level with the remainder all stepping up in class. Of those, ALBAHR (NAP) returned the impressive winner of a novices' race at Haydock despite carrying a penalty and Charlie Appleby’s charge has the edge over Sweeping on these terms. The latter won at Catterick recently while Power Of Beauty defied a penalty to land the odds at Yarmouth and could go well. Chelmsford winner Sanitiser, Monitor and Fuente Ovejuna look to have plenty to find but the Irish challenger I Am Magic is harder to assess on his maiden win at Galway.
