        Verdict

        The City Kid, Cha Cha Cha and Teasing are the ones that catch the eye here, with bottom weight The City Kid taken to come out on top. Cha Cha Cha is an interesting recruit to the all weather game. He has won twice in six starts and has never been beaten more than about three lengths. He may be best watched here though to see how he handles the surface. Teasing is now eight pounds higher than when scoring at Lingfield in October but has run some good races in having a string of seconds, notably last time when only beaten a head. He can go close again but may have too much weight. The City Kid has won two of his last four starts and runs off the same mark as when going down by a length to Cabourg last time. The sixth, Rabbit Fighter, romped home at Kempton on Wednesday and the form may be better than it looks. The City Kid receives weight all round and can take advantage.
