Verdict

GEORGE FENTON has a couple of wins in his form string and stands out on that basis. A winner at Wolverhampton back in March, Richard Guest's charge went in again at Hamilton on Monday and may well defy a penalty here. Dixie Gwala was placed at Ffos Las in July but hasn't raced since while Sermons Mount was a close-up seventh in a blanket finish here before being well beaten at Chepstow. West Leake has the past form to figure but both of Leelu's course wins came over a longer trip.
