      Verdict

      A tough contest for punters but it may pay to side with the improving Birjand who earns the TEAMtalk vote. The Michael Jarvis-trained filly has progressed well this term and, being lightly raced, there may be more to come from the daughter of Green Desert who was landing her third win of the current campaign at Doncaster last month. The three-year-old readily held the sustained challenge of Great St Wilfred hero Deceitful over 7f and this pacey type should have little difficulty in coping with the drop in distance so should prove hard to beat. Torosay Spring bounced back to form to lift a conditions event over this trip at Yarmouth in August but faces no easy task conceding weight all round while Baralinka ran disappointingly last time and now has something to prove. Damalis showed signs of a return to form on her latest start but Lochridge isn't living up to her illustrious parenthood and is also 2lb out of the handicap proper.
