        Verdict

        Chater Knight, Champagne Shadow and Kalawoun are three against the field in this claimer with the vote going to Chater Knight. The selection was a fair fourth behind Zalkani last time out. That form looks rock solid in there context of this race and with the step up in trip also in his favour he will be hard to beat. Champagne Shadow rates the main danger on his latest fifth behind Sirce. His yard are in top form and he should be closely watched in the market. Kalawoun is another that could go well on his best form but he has been disappointing over hurdles of late so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder, He's A Star is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but Chater Knight looks well in on his best form and he will be hard to beat.
