      Verdict

      Kennington, Never Without Me and Turn Around look to be the principles here and we will make Kennington the selection. The gelding from the Christine Dunnett yard ran his best race for some time when second behind Gone 'N' Dunnett at Yarmouth last time. He has gone well on this track in the past and with conditions to suit he looks the one to beat. Never Without Me won well on the AW here last time when defeating Brantwood, but he has a penalty for that success and that may put pay to his chances. Turn Around also won here last time on the AW and also has a 6lb penalty for that win, but he won emphatically when defeating Bulawayo and although this is slightly tougher he could be capable of a big run. Of the remainder, New Options has dropped to a handy mark and would have definite place claims if he ordained to put his best foot forward, but for the winner we return to Kennington.
