      Verdict

      Al Khan steps down into selling grade for the first time and the market should tell us all plenty about the Stephen Arnold-owned gelding. He has to be considered a risky proposition at this stage, likewise Spitfire who is currently struggling to get his head in front and hasn't looked overly willing of late. Hughie Morrison has always enjoyed a good record at this venue and ABI SCARLET is taken to provide the Berkshire trainer with another course success. A dual course and distance winner last winter, the daughter of Baltic King has been far from disgraced in useful Fibresand handicap company the last twice and should prove a tough nut to crack. George Fenton usually runs his race and another solid showing is anticipated from Conor Dore's inmate.
