      Verdict

      Placed twice earlier this season off higher mark, UBETTABEQUICK could be the answer to a tricky finale under the talented Alex Jary with Barrolo beaten last time at Catterick when 2lb lower. Indication Rocket seems best on Tapeta and Keeponbelieving is not improving but Cuban Rock has only been raised 4lb for a victory over track and trip earlier this month.
