        Verdict

        Novalist may not have been suited by the heavy ground when third at Carlisle last time. Already successful at Redcar and Southwell this year, Robin Bastiman's gelding shouldn't be far away here. Hygrove Gal and Boucher Garcon are relatively unexposed while Mission Impossible can't be ignored, despite top weight. But we'll give another chance to SANDWITH, who had a Berbice, Distant Sun and Cayman Fox behind when runner-up in a better race over C&D exactly a year ago. George Foster's eight-year-old, second at Hamilton on his penultimate start, is 7lb lower now and can take this from a decent draw.
