    Verdict

    Sanaadh finished last in two runs here last month but won off a 4lb higher mark over course and distance just under a year ago. Millionaire Waltz rattled up a hat-trick over track and trip in the autumn but they were all Class 6 events and he came up short upped in grade last time and is held by SPARTAN FIGHTER on the form book. Effective over 6f and 7f, Antony Brittain’s charge is still well treated despite having won three of his last four. Dutch Decoy has only won on Turf and Polytrack so far but Southwell second Sir Maxi can’t be ignored.
