        Verdict

        War At Sea gets the verdict in a fascanating claimer, Always Baileys and Lanfredo could be the main dangers. The phillip Hobbs trained four-year-old did very little over the jumps this season but returns to the flat in a pretty weak affair and if he can recapture his form of 2005 he will be hard to beat. Always Baileys put in his best effort for some time when chasing home Luna Landing at Catterick last week. He is closely matched with the selection on official ratings and looks the main danger. Lanfredo finished second in a seller here last time and gets plenty of weight from our selection, he could be capable of reaching the frame. The rest look a very modest bunch and so it will not be too difficult a task for War At Sea, who gets the vote.
