        Verdict

        Zamadance is the only one of these to have run over 1m2f and he finished a well beaten second at Bath. Recent Hamilton winner Katebird is penalised for that success while JOHN T CHANCE has been raised 6lb for winning at Wolverhampton. He beat both Alligator and Clenymistra on that occasion and should figure again if staying the trip. Midnight Man has yet to threaten on Turf but drops down in class while Matthioli and Speciale Di Giorno are handicap debutants to keep an eye on.
