      Verdict

      Alpen Power never figured upped to today’s trip for the first time and the remainder have yet to race over this far. Of those, DARK ENCOUNTER wasn’t beaten far when fourth in a Class 2 nursery over 7f at York and faces an easier task in this. Gamraan has plenty to find with the selection while Star Of Lazise won a lower grade handicap here last month. Consoling and Short Circuit make their handicap debuts.
