      Verdict

      BALLYARE has been thereabouts since winning at Wolverhampton in December with Another Angel back in third. He should be in the mix once again while the latter has subsequently placed at Southwell. Primo's Comet is back on a winning mark and finished closer here last time while Dazzling Des can do better back on the Tapeta for this. James Watt has undergone a wind operation since last year and debuts on the all-weather.
