      Verdict

      The progressive DOCTOR CHURCHILL won here before landing a double with last week’s success at Kempton. He looks one to keep on the right side of despite today’s penalty. A couple of these made winning starts in handicaps though Arcadian Nights was successful at Kempton back in October and Komore is preferred having won at the same track last month. Shaqeeqa landed a maiden race over 7f recently while Esticky End placed at Newcastle and Open Mystery has switched yards.
