    Verdict

    Junior Ben and Crosse Fire look up against it but the remaining three runners all of have claims. Rio Ronaldo drops back in trip for his handicap debut having won at Wolverhampton back in September while Uptight scored over 6f here and wasn't disgraced in a decent handicap at York on his latest start. But SNOW CLOUD has also been competing in better company and found only one too good in a Class 2 contest in soft going at Haydock last month. Today's ground should be riding a bit faster and David O'Meara's filly can return to winning ways.
