        Verdict

        Rancho Cucamonga can beat Little Wizzy, and the reappearing pair, Alpaga Le Jomage and Gracie's Gift. Rancho Cucamonga has been disappointing since opening her account at Nottingham in July, having struggled to make any impression in nursery company. However, she showed her first worthwhile form when finishing second to Saafendonseabicuit at Pontefract in October, and if adapting to the all-weather, can return to winning ways. Little Wizzy got bogged down in the very heavy ground at Newbury last time so is worth another chance at this lowly level, while Alpaga Le Jomage has failed to build on a promising Newmarket debut behind Blue Dakota, although he did make all at Musselburgh in July. Gracie's Gift has shown little in two runs to date and has an absence to overcome, but his stable is always worth following at this time of the year on the all-weather. Without being overly optimistic, we shall side with Rancho Cucamonga to go one better.
