        Verdict

        Hickster has been raised 5lb for winning over track and trip with the favourite Walk Like A Giant back in third. Hercullian Prince also returned a losing favourite last time but has been thereabouts over a mile here of late and should be in the mix again. Carragold's only win on the all-weather so far came over a longer trip on the Fibresand at Southwell so the vote goes to BUCKLAND BEAU. The latter went close at Kempton last month but never got a chance to improve on that on his latest start as his saddle slipped early in the race and he lost his weight cloth. He looks worth a risk in this.
