        Verdict

        Chelmsford maiden winner Lovely Memory returns to action and should be winning a handicap this year but Early Morning is 6lb higher than his win at Haydock in August. Silverheels has been running well in lower grade contests but Bint Dandy finished second in an All-Weather Championship race last time so has leading claims. GREY MIRAGE (NAP) won at last year's All-Weather Championships though has been out of luck since and has slipped 9lb down the weights. Dropped in class for this, Marco Botti's charge may well return to winning ways. Unforgiving Minute went close in a tougher race here in March only to disappoint last time.
