Verdict

Tilly Trotter won at Newcastle last month then competed with credit in a stronger handicap there a few days later. Rich Again is 11-36 on the all-weather and loves this surface as he proved when completing a Newcastle double in January. He's run in better company later so should give another good account. Top Boy, runner-up in a Class 2 handicap at Newmarket in the summer, should make a bold bid to take advantage of a steady drop in the ratings but LANDING NIGHT won at Newcastle in October and has continued to run well in better company so gets the vote to return to winning ways. Always Amazing, a maiden winner here in the summer, was well beaten on his handicap debut at Newmarket in July.
