      Verdict

      Kaolak hasn't raced for over a year and it doesn't bode well to see him dropped into this grade on his return. ACTIVATE has a bit to find on today's terms with the latter but arrives in decent form and won't be far away with a repeat of his latest fourth at Newcastle. Keith Dalgleish's charge looks the one to beat as the remainder look out of this at the weights unless Bold Marc suddenly rediscovers his best having tumbled down the handicap in the last year.
