Verdict

None of these inspire confidence with a speculative vote going the way of WIN WIN POWER. A repeat of a third at Lingfield back in September will see him go close and he may have improved during the interim having been gelded. Dutugamunu faded away at Lingfield last week having won at the same track earlier while Salam Ya Faisal won at Southwell early last month. Casina Di Notte remains unpredictable having ran well at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start but Channel Packet is back on a winning mark if rediscovering his best.
