        Verdict

        Shaiyzima has improved with each run this season is taken to score again, he is from a yard in top form goes on the ground and despite a sharp rise in the weights he looked ahead of the handicapper last time out. Impeller was a good second behind Ashgar Sayyad last time and rates the main danger he was doing all his best work at the finish that day and will relish the step back up in trip. Pentecost was well beaten in a better race at York last time and although this is a drop in grade his best form is with cut in the ground. Oakley Rambo was an unlucky second last time and again he should go well with conditions in his favour. Selective would also have a chance on his best form but he was very disappointing last time out at Ripon on fast ground and he may be better with more cut in the ground. Lady Zonda is well weighted on her best form and it would be no surprise if she took a hand in the finish.
