        Verdict

        An interesting event to get the meeting under way, with the weights headed by Bourgainville. He has plenty going for him at this level, after turning in what looked like a personal best last time in a Listed event at Ascot, where he had several useful performers behind him that day. Londoner, who proved a major disappointment over hurdles, will have been freshened up by a break and could go well, if putting it all in, while course winner Robandela, is also capable of a bold show, if he is one of his going days. Kirovski, in good form of late, has more to do off this mark, but Torcello, from a yard who has yet to hit top form, is interesting now that the Handicapper is beginning to relent a little. Compton Commander is not one to rely on, while The Glen, without a win for over a year, would not want the ground too fast. A chance is taken with Prairie Wolf, who finished just behind Parisien Star here last month and is much better off at the weights, taking into account Dean Corby's claim.
