      Verdict

      Tojoneski gets the vote here over Jamestown and Eurolink Artemis. Tojoneski gained his only victory here two years ago for Peter Makin but has plummeted down the weights since and did not run that badly at Lingfield last time. This is not a strong affair by any stretch of the imagination, and Tojoneski's third to Gentle Response on Lingfield's Polytrack the time before last is as good as anything else here. Jamestown has won twice here in the past but is not the force he was and is out of form, while Eurolink Artemis is another that has been sadly vacant from the winner's enclosure for some time. If Tojoneski cannot win this, connections had better start worrying, and he appears to be a logical choice.
