      Verdict

      ORPEN ARMS is the pick with Fibs And Flannel and Chushka likely to run him close. Richard Fahey's charge is noted as an early pace type and he will need to be as the draw is not the greatest. That said, his odds are likely to be far better than were he allocated a plum high draw. Fibs And Flannel was easy to back on reappearance but stayed on well to grab second at last week's meeting. He is allowed to try his luck again off the same mark.Chushka did all but win at Musselburgh in a recent maiden and has confirmed the current well being of the Bryan Smart string. Honest Broker has not shown a great deal on the turf so far but should be fit from a winter campaign on the artificial surfaces. Tia Juana makes a debut for Ben Haslam having left Godolphin following an unsuccessful stint. Orpen Arms looks to have all factors in his favour and we seek not to oppose.
