        Verdict

        Prolific on the all-weather, Imperial Command can race off a lower mark back on this surface but is unproven over this far. Legendary Day has also proved best over shorter trips so far but RAFIKI placed over today’s distance at Chelmsford on his reappearance. The handicapper has taken a chance dropping him 2lb and Alan King’s charge gets the vote. Ziggy has the form to figure but hasn’t raced since October.
