      Verdict

      Two miles and fast ground suit KANAD well, and Charlie Mann's gelding is taken to follow-up his recent win here in this grade, while What's Up Doc and Jordan's Light are obvious potential dangers. The selection had to work hard enough to score over 2m 4f last month, when today's pilot was up. However, he has proved himself around this tight circuit and goes in these conditions, while he has upwards of 7lbs in hand at the weights compared to if this were a handicap and he is a confident choice. What's Up Doc is next best in at the weights and comes here in decent form after a win and then going close to backing that up in successive Wolverhampton Polytrack sellers. Trip and ground suit in this sphere and he should make his presence felt. Jordan's Light has a bit to find and although in reasonable form he would prefer some cut to be seen to best effect so we'll take him on. Persian Tomcat and Wicklewood are both worth market checks on their introduction to hurdling, but their Flat form suggests that a win for either would be a surprise and Kanad is selected.
