      Verdict

      This could be a penalty kick for Adjami with State Of Play and Downing Street being the main dangers. Adjami hails from the in form Alan King yard and his two runs this season have seen him finish second and then first at Bangor last time out. He carries the penalty but because he is a four year old doesn't give any weight away and a repeat performance will see him win. State Of Play reverts back to novice company after looking exposed in a Worcester handicap last time out and again will find one or two too good as will Downing Street who won a weak race at Perth on his seasonal reappearance and can only improve. But for the winner we return to Adjami.
