        Verdict

        A moderate end to proceedings may go the way of Harrison's Flyer ahead of Sokoke, Westborough and Lakeside Guy to name but three. This is definitely not an event to get too involved in and only a small vote goes to Harrison's Flyer who has to be forgiven his latest effort to warrant support. Prior to his dismal performance at Beverley where he only beat one home, Richard Fahey's charge had finished well clear of the third when runner-up to the odds-on Royal Challenge at the Yorkshire track. If he could be guaranteed to reproduce that running, then he would be worth a bet. Whether he does though remains to be seen, and there are others that can capitalise such as Sokoke who kept on well on his Lingfield debut. Westborough has plenty of experience and may well have won at Hamilton if not for swerving at the start. Lakeside Guy shaped well enough at Kempton to earn a mention as well, while True Magic was not beaten too far at Carlisle. Too many ifs and buts to be positive then, and Harrison's Flyer is the pick to small stakes only.
