      Verdict

      There were signs last time that SILVERBURN is coming back into form and he's worth siding with ahead of the likes of Prescelli, Tarvini and Purely By Chance. Evan Williams' charge was once of course in the care of Paul Nicholls when the sky looked to be the limit. He's a full brother to Denman and really should be better than a 125 rated sort - he was once rated over 140 - so one would hope there'd be a race to be won with him. That again looked to be the case when he found only a well treated and tough sort too good last time and off the same mark he's handicapped to win this. That said he's not been the most reliable over the years so those seeking to take him on could do well to turn to Prescelli, who has proved herself to be a really tough mare over the past few months. Keith Goldsworthy's mare runs under a 7lb penalty following a demolition job at Wincanton and can't be discounted even though this does look tougher. Tarvini has been off since November, probably to avoid winter conditions, and must be considered on his return particularly if the market makes the right noises. Purely By Chance completes our shortlist having romped home last time; he's got to prove stamina for the trip but wasn't stopping at Huntingdon and could well shrug off an 11lb rise. Wild Tonto arrives in good health and could have more to offer but the race he won last time was poor whilst Magical Legend may be found out by a 3lb rise gained in defeat and Moghaayer hasn't confirmed the promise of his bumper win just yet, so we'll return to the well-treated Silverburn in our bid to solve this puzzle.
