      Verdict

      YEEOOW may be worth chancing dropping down to this level. He landed a handicap at Pontefract earlier this season and is preferred to Evanescent, who also drops in class but hasn't won for over a year now. By contrast, Layla's Hero has won three times in plating company this term but all three victories came over longer trips while Father Fred beat For Ayman in a claimer on his return from a lengthy absence but the latter is much better off under today's terms. Dissent has a chance at the weights but is having his first start since March.
