    Verdict

    This could end up a two horse race involving Heavens Walk and Malapropism with Bluebok also worth noting with the nod going to Heavans Walk. The selection is bidding for a hat-trick after wins at Lingfield and Kempton. His latest win was when beating After The Show by one and a quarter lengths. He is now fourteen pounds higher in the weights but still looks well treated and with a nice racing weight to carry here he is worth siding with once more. Malapropism carries a six pound penalty for his win at York last time out so connections must feel his is better off now than waiting to be reassessed by the handicapper. Bluebok has the services of Jamie Spencer and was a winner at Musselburgh last month. He recaptured his form at Warwick last time out when second to Caribbean Coral and a repeat performance will see him enter the frame but for the winner we return to Heavens Walk.
