        Verdict

        This won't take much winning but it's still difficult to drum up much enthusiasm for the majority of these. Dibdabs must have a chance on placed efforts at Carlisle and Kelso in the spring and may have needed his comeback run. Northern Acres was third in this grade at Kelso last month and also goes on the short-list but Sohcahtoa is still 5lb higher than when winning here in June. Michael Scudamore had a good strike-rate with the few runners he sends this far north and NOUVEAU MOULIN, who won a couple of bumpers in Ireland, faces her easiest task for some time - she is worth another chance.
