    Verdict

    PONDERING's only poor run in four was on fast ground at Chepstow but she only faded close home over slightly further in a Leicester handicap last time and looks the one to be on. Affair started off quite well on Turf last summer but has gone backwards on the all-weather circuit. It's possible he could return to form back on this surface while Tiger Khan is quickly dropped into this level after finishing tailed off last on his debut at Windsor where he started 100/1. Lord E ran slightly better at Brighton last time though that isn't saying much.
