    Verdict

    NOW YOU SEE ME can defy his six pound penalty to win again at the expense of Blakeshall Diamond and Stoneacre Pat. The selection won well at Southwell last week and connections have been keen to get a run into him before he is reassessed. For that reason he worth staying on the right side of and if he can reproduce his recent form he should prove difficult to beat. Blakeshall Diamond is interesting now that he has been dropped to a mark of 55. He broke his maiden tag last year over course and distance and was given a rating of 71. He can at last be competitive off his current rating so any market moves should be noted. Stoneacre Pat has some fair form to his name and was a decent second of ten at Kempton in September. He has disappointed since so he has to be treated with some caution. But for the winner we return to Now You See Me.
