Verdict
Prayer Time left his previous form behind when scoring easily at Southwell but with doubts surrounding his ability to reproduce that effort so CLAMPDOWN gets the vote. The latter returns from a lay-off but may still be good enough on his close-up second over track and trip in November. This is tougher than the claimer Auld Fyffee won here at the end of last year and Anniversarie makes more appeal on her recent placed efforts. Smugglers Lane won at Lingfield last month and went close again off a higher mark last time.
