        Verdict

        This looks less competitive than the previous division with PULSATING arriving in the best form. He’s upped 5lb bidding for hat-trick having won over track and trip before scoring at Kempton recently. Kingofmerrows keeps threatening to get his head in front without actually doing so and Big Lachie is another frustrating type. The Amber Fort went close at Southwell last month and has won here before while Mr Pocket was runner-up over 5f at Chelmsford on his penultimate start.
