        Verdict

        CLAYTON looks to have been found another winning opportunity. Bought out of a seller after scoring over hurdles at Fakenham, he won a Musselburgh seller then a Redcar claimer for new connections. He's 10lb clear of Eye of The Storm on official ratings and only has to concede Keith Dalgleish' charge 4lb. Nabhan ran quite well in a Doncaster handicap in March but poorly over hurdles at Chepstow last month and though the three-year-old Brinkleys Katie gets plenty of weight and races in this lowly grade for the first time she'll need to find some improvement.
