    Verdict

    Prairie Minstrel holds strong claims here and can beat Idealko and Point of Origin. Robin Dickin's gelding rarely runs a bad race here and beat some decent types over a slightly longer trip back in December, he still looks on a winning mark and can land his third course victory. Idealko has suffered at the hands of the handicapper following some decent efforts, even though he hasn't won for a year. He may still be a little high in the weights but could run into a place. Point Of Origin pulled up at Huntingdon last time but was previously a gutsy winner from Billywill, another bold showing is expected. Supreme Leader hails from an inform yard and could be best of the rest, but Prairie Minstrel's love of the course gets him the vote.
