    Verdict

    NORTH STAR BOY is dropped in class having found life tough in handicaps. Richard Hannon's charge was beaten only a length over track and trip in November and will take the beating on today's terms if running up to a similar level. Al Aqabah is weighted to get involved though she's done all her winning over longer trips while a better effort from Homeboy is expected back in plating company. Microlight has little chance at the weights and is easily overlooked.
