    Verdict

    Dirchill had dropped to a lenient mark when successful at Redcar and has 10lb more to carry here. Ey Up Its Mick was raised 7lb after winning at Haydock but Canford's Joy has strong claims having finished second over course and distance nine days ago in a higher grade. I KNOW HOW could be interesting as his yard has a good strike-rate here. He did finish behind Pearl Of Qatar at Thirsk but missed the break so can be forgiven that run. Liamba is best at Southwell.
