      Verdict

      The grey Papamoa won at Hexham in November but finished behind the so-far disappointing Dark Glacier at Ayr last time. The Friary probably ran better than was expected on his chasing bow at Kelso but this looks more competitive, though Hawaii Klass and Markadam have plenty to prove over fences and Ebony River was an early casualty at Doncaster last time. REBEL SWING didn't get home over 3m5f at Market Rasen last time but was a winner over this track and trip in October and is only 2lb higher today. He looks the one to beat though Gorey Lane would also have a decent chance on his best form.
