        Verdict

        Dellaguista bids for a four-timer but has been raised a further 6lb and both Corked and Chestnut Fire re-oppose on more favourable terms. Fire Diamond and Ebbisham are closely matched having filled the places over 7f here last time while Favourite Royal, Lagenda and Toga Tiger are all reasonably treated in a tight handicap. That being the case, KELLY’S DINO gets the nod as he’s the least exposed having won at Southwell recently on his first start since 2015 and has plenty of scope for further improvement.
