      Verdict

      A tough staying handicap in which we will take BENHEGO to win again at the main expense of Rutba, Trigger's Friend and Kokkokila. The selection was a very easy winner a week ago at Great Leighs. He was eased down yet won by 11 lengths and this relatively unexposed gelding should go close, especially with this trip opening up new avenues. Chiff Chaff and Sonnengold also come here on the back of recent wins and each needs respect, whilst Rutba beat the selection last time. That was his first run in a visor and he can progress from that run; he rates the main danger but doesn't have a great draw. Trigger's Friend has had a good season and should not be overlooked; he may be high enough in the weights now but his last run was too bad to be true and any rain would be in his favour. Brave Bugsy and Stoop To Conquer are both consistent, whilst Brendan Duke has had some winners of late so Openide should not be sniffed at. A very tough race where the big field and likely strong pace will suit Mister Completely, however we will stick with Benhego.
