Verdict

This is quite a tricky claimer and we will give a Tedstale a narrow vote ahead of Khanjar and Court Of Appeal. Khanjar and Tedstale met in a simlar race at Leicester recently with Kevin Ryan's eight-year-old coming out on top. Khanjar has just over three lengths to find and should get a lot closer on two pound better terms, but Tedstale should again have his measure. Court Of Appeal has a little bit to find on official ratings but has been running well. His recent handicap win at Ripon was gained in great style and he should be involved in the finish. Parchment is another running well at present and cannot easily be ignored, but there could be a bit more to come from Tedstale and he can make it back to back victories.
