    Verdict

    Sbraase should have no trouble confirming running with Swing Alone on his recent win at Wolverhampton despite a 6lb rise. He drops back in trip for this as does Stetchworth, who scored in this grade at Redcar in October and is also 6lb higher today. Yule Finegold won a lower grade contest over track and tip last month but was well beaten back on Turf last time and BOONGA ROOGETA makes more appeal. She ran well in Class 2 company on her reappearance at Wolverhampton despite finishing last of five and the handicapper has generously dropped her 4lb in the weights.
