      Verdict

      EXTRATERRESTRIAL has at least 6lb in hand on his rivals according to official ratings and last week's course and distance third came in better company. It's more than two years since he was last in the winner's enclosure but he should put that right this evening. Saharia has never won on Turf and neither has Springheel Jake but Rawaafed won a Hamilton claimer last Thursday and makes more appeal than River Ardeche and Tony Hollis at the weights.
