      Verdict

      It's Me And You showed nothing on his debut, while Khandaq and Last Sovereign are returning from lay-offs and Istiqdaam is out of sorts. It's a close call between the remaining quartet, however, with ONE WAY OR ANOTHER the tentative selection. He reversed earlier C&D form with stablemate Bawaardi when a close-up seventh in a decent handicap at Lingfield last time and renews the rivalry on better terms today. Ezra Church finished just behind David Evans' duo at at this track last month and both he and Greyfriarschorista have claims back at this level having contested handicaps last time.
