        Verdict

        A competitive handicap gets proceedings underway and there is very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Kirkby's Treasure, Cool Ebony and Frank Crow and the narrow vote is given to Kirkby's Treasure. The selection has been in fair form of late and was a good third in a similar contest behind Joshua's Gold, he looks sure to be suited by this slightly longer trip and with his yard continuing in good form he is taken to regain the winning thread. Cool Ebony rates the main danger on his latest third behind Hawkit. He looks sure to be suited by this longer trip and as he has won off a higher mark in the past he should be watched in the market. Frank Crow is another that could go well on his latest fourth behind Moheeb but he just gave the impression the handicapper had caught up with him on that occasion and again he looks vulnerable under top weight. Kabis Amigos will be a danger to all if he gets an easy lead while Grand Opera is from a yard that is beginning to hit form again and should be watched in the market but Kirkby's Treasure looks to be progressing and he gets the vote.
