        Verdict

        TIMOCRACY gets the confident vote in this handicap over Interdiamonds and Grand Art. Tim Walford has his string in good form at present and his 4-year-old Timocracy followed up a winning effort at Pontefract with a decent third at York last time behind Grand Art. On these terms there shouldn't be much between them again and with Graham Gibbons taking over from an inexperienced pilot aboard Timocracy he just edges the pick. Interdiamonds won her maiden here last month and she could be of interest on her handicap debut, although she does tackle this trip for the first time and we don't yet know how well treated she is. Spensley is also making his handicap debut but he has not shown enough in maiden company to suggest that he will be good enough to get his his head in front here. Shaloo Diamond is best with plenty of cut in the ground and he has yet to prove himself over this trip. Timocracy is from a stable who are firing at present and he gets the vote.
