      Verdict

      Bit Of A Quirke and Zihaam have shared a dozen track victories between them and the latter came out on top when they finished 1-2 earlier this month before a very good run behind Poet's Dawn on a return visit. However, he didn't run as well next time while Mark Walford's charge scored at Leicester so there's unlikely to be much between them this time. CASILLI has been here twice and won both, the latest last month before overcoming a 3lb rise at Ripon. He's probably still on the upgrade and a hat-trick beckons. Richard Hannon is doubly represented with Sean Levy on board the maiden Big Wing, who has only raced on the all-weather, so the stable may be better represented by Mafia Power. Musahaba ran his best race to date at Thirsk though that was on fast going but Colony Queen has won here and on heavy ground so could provide a threat as she goes well fresh.
