        Verdict

        A prolific winner here over the years, MY TARGET was attempting today’s trip for the first time when runner-up at the track last month. He’s taken to confirm running with Torochica and come out best. Normal Norman has failed to complete over hurdles since scoring over a mile at Kempton and can figure while Starfighter debuts on the all-weather on his reappearance having won at Salisbury back in September. Berrahri is another returning to action though all of last year’s three victories on Turf came over longer trips and Mr Scaramanga is preferred on this surface.
