      Verdict

      Glenmoore makes a quick reappearance after a decent run on Monday, where a 6lb rise for his earlier victory over 6f might just have anchored him. My Good Brother has a fine record around here and is 5lb lower than his last winning mark though he hasn't been finding the necessary pace in his latest runs. Cherry Kool hasn't shown much in two runs since arriving from the UK while Pillar is 1-41 and has never won on the all-weather. The three-year-old TY ROCK BRANDY went to Wolverhampton for a handicap against his own age group and won his second race on the track. He had earlier been a close fourth behind Plough Boy here and that could prove good enough for this. Blastofmagic has been beaten in Class 7 handicaps in the UK the last twice where he's looked a tricky ride.
