        Verdict

        HIGH OPINION made the most of a slide down the weights to win over track and trip last month. He’s 6lb higher today but has won off higher marks in the past. One Last Hug and Sherdil finished behind the selection while Henery Hawk notched-up a double over the minimum trip in October and has raced over longer trips subsequently. Rory returned to winning ways over 6f here a week ago and can go well again despite a 4lb rise.
