      Verdict

      WIGAN WARRIOR was narrowly beaten at Haydock last season and went close again when just missing out at Kempton 10 days ago. He may prove good enough in this ahead of Ellaal, who has slipped back down the weights since winning at Newmarket in August. Ralphy Boy is another back on a winning mark and the course and distance winner is preferred to Secret Missile and Full Of Promise, who have both done their winning over shorter trips so far.
