      Verdict

      Not the strongest of handicaps and it may be worth taking a chance that IVORS INVOLVEMENT can build on his run last time at Thirsk where he showed plenty of promise having travelled well and this isn't any stronger. Tambour is another sort who has been flirting with the idea of winning and could well take another step forward with Jonny Delta expected to give his running around here. Sakhalin Star may not get the strong pace that he needs to aim at here while Mr Sundowner could struggle over this 1m4f trip having never really proved his stamina.
