      Verdict

      DIG DEEP and Mocha Java have the best chance at the weights here and preference is just for the former. John Quinn's gelding last won at Chepstow in a handicap from a mark of 68 last summer, and despite running reasonably well since then he has been held from higher marks. This is his optimum trip and he has been given an easier task now than those recent runs, while he did act on this surface and track at the beginning of his career. Mocha Java is only 1lb worse off with our pick than if this were a handicap and comes here in decent nick after winning at Southwell a couple of starts ago. This is also his trip, and while he has run reasonably well on this surface previously, he does prefer a slower surface and is taken on. One who does go well here is course and distance scorer Dichoh. He is consistent enough but not well treated at the weights and cannot be backed with huge amounts of confidence. Kipchak has 6lbs to find with our pick, but that is not impossible for one who goes very well here and over this trip, but we just favour the claims of Dig Deep.
