      Verdict

      A small but competitive field go to post for this contest an the TEAMtalk selection is Del Trotter. He won in game fashion last time out and he is taken to score despite his penalty as he is proven in the conditions. Tomenoso rates the main danger he is from a yard in top form is proven on the ground and should go well but his pedigree is full of stamina and he may be seen to better effect over a longer trip. Only Words is also worthy of consideration as he goes particularly well at the track but he was slightly disappointing last time out at Newcastle. Tarashani could also go well at a fair price but he needs to improve on his latest fourth behind Mr Micky at Wetherby. Initiative is a course and distance but he has ran as if in the handicappers grip of late.
