        Verdict

        From a shortlist of Alpaga le Jomage, Clipper Hoy, Chilly Cracker, Rasseem and Speed Dial Harry in an interesting nursery we will opt for Alpaga le Jomage. Spinning through what we see as the main runners of interest and, lightly raced, Blades Boy won a similar event at Wolverhampton from a six-pound lower mark two runs ago but holds claims with his apprentice rider taking off seven pounds. Clipper Hoy showed improved from when tried on the all-weather for the first time last time, a run that came at Lingfield, and he would appear to be reasonably handicapped. Turn On The Style won his maiden at Catterick but then disappointed next time. However, with first-time blinkers fitted, he cannot be ruled out of things. Chilly Cracker has won on Turf from a mark of 64, and also won his maiden here, so is another to consider from a rating of 70. Rasseem cost 140,000 guineas and, now with Michael Hammond, could go well on his first try on this surface, having shown promise on Turf. Speed Dial Harry has a visor refitted today after running three times without it, so expect better from him too, while Alpaga le Jomage ran in a Group 2 race in his last try on Turf, and returned from a break to be narrowly thwarted by Rancho Cucamonga in a course claimer over a furlong further than today's trip. There is no doubt that, if he is at his best and puts his best foot forward, he ought to win. Nova Tor is another to have displayed a decent level of form, although she does seem best with some cut in the ground. I can hear the groans as I write and say it, but I am going to give Alpaga le Jomage another chance and, accordingly, he gets the vote.
