    Verdict

    ALLANNAH ABU can continue to terrify the handicapper with Sheila's Bond and Albeed booked to battle for place money. As is typical of Sir Mark Prescott, he has an individually that has been well campaigned before being unleashed at a virtual wall of handicaps. The way in which he won at Yarmouth suggests that he has not finished with his winning for the season. Sheila's Bond ran well behind Explorator last week and will be winning once she does not find another well handicapped performer in opposition. Albeed has been a disappointment in his career thus far. All hopes rely on a step up in trip bringing about a change in fortunes. Royal Torbo has been beaten in claiming company so faces a stiff task on a return to handicaps. Dubawi King won a modest race at Hamilton though was unable to deliver in a quick follow up attempt. The remainder look ordinary at best. Allannah Abu will be a short price tonight and appears unopposable.
