        Verdict

        The Fisio gets the call here with his main dangers possibly being Woodland Blaze and Laurel Dawn. The Andrew Balding-trained selection is a course and distance winner but also won last time out at Lingfield from today's mark. He comes here in good heart, his stable is in good form and he ought to give you a very good run for your money. Woodland Blaze scored over course and distance in November from a four-pound lower mark, so warrants some consideration. Prime Recreation also won over course and distance from a mark that is eight-pounds higher than today's but that win came two years ago. Laurel Dawn scored over course and distance in December from a four-pound lower mark than today's and, with a good three-pound-claiming apprentice booked, is entitled to his supporters. Of the others, Justalord looks a little high in the weights, Grandma Lily is possibly better at six furlongs than five, Blueberry Rhyme needs to be produced at exactly the right time and is becoming expensive to follow, Sea The World won a course and distance maiden in April last year and, while he is now dropping in the weights, has been disappointing overall since, and Best Lead has a bit more to do than when winning a five-furlong Wolverhampton claimer last time. The road, therefore, leads us back to The Fisio, who can land another win for his successful stable.
