      Verdict

      Signifer made a promising start when runner-up at Newbury earlier this month. He couldn't cope with the winner but third-placed Commissar has won since and Mick Channon's colt looks to have a leading chance. However, THAT'S DANGEROUS was sent off a short-priced favourite on his debut at Kempton but blew his chance with a slow start. He recovered well to get within a short-head of the winner and can go one better here. Shout For Joy, Bajan Hero and Blackburn are newcomers worth noting but this looks between the principals.
