    Verdict

    Firebomb has been raised 4lb for winning at Southwell last month so COOLMEEN ROYAL looks worth sticking with. The latter makes her handicap debut having won a novices race at Wolverhampton earlier in the month, form which has been franked. Antiphon drops back down in trip having returned a beaten favourite on his handicap bow while Unfinishedsympathy drops down in class after struggling in Listed company back in September. Lunasa won here in November and is preferred to Coast.
