        Verdict

        Touchwood finished runner-up once again when beaten over 6f at Catterick though should have the measure of the four-year-old Miquelon on these terms. Cirrus has struggled in handicaps lately and may do better back at this level while the Godolphin representative Chief of Staff has been gelded since last in action at Newmarket and is fitted with headgear for the first time. SKY DWELLER is one of the less exposed types and ran well without threatening at Chester last time. A couple of winners have come out of the race and Marco Botti’s colt may be the one to side with.
