        Verdict

        Jacob's Pillow has been raised only 3lb for his recent course and distance success in this grade but runner-up Borough Boy re-opposes on better terms. Novabridge was narrowly beaten here last week and Henley was placed in a tougher sprint at Newcastle in October when last in action. But DUSTY BLUE (NAP) also drops down a grade after scoring over track and trip and beating a couple of subsequent winners in the process. She looks worth sticking with in this and is also preferred to Wolverhampton winner Annie Salts.
