        Verdict

        The ground looks a bit too quick for Moheeb, who otherwise would have decent claims here, and preference is for FANTASTIC STRIKE, who can take the measure of Reel Buddy Star. Our pick makes just his second start in a handicap, having been tried over this trip at Bath last September. The yard is going well and can have them ready to win first time after a break, while this fast ground should be ideal. With the three-year-old allowance we will side with him. Reel Buddy Star was an unchallenged Newcastle winner last time out, for which he is penalised 6lbs today. He enjoys fast ground, but history is against him as he has never before strung two wins together and we are happy to take him on. Bold Diktator is not out of this judged by his Doncaster run, while Kings Point also has frame claims. Turn Me On will love the road-like conditions and just about stays this far, so with the yard in-form he couldn't be confidently ruled out, though we will side with Fantastic Strike.
