    Verdict

    CAMBERLEY TWO has been cleverly placed to land a four-timer and can add further to his tally here. He's collected a 6lb penalty for his latest success at Yarmouth but won very easily at the seaside track and Kieran O'Neill again takes 3lb off his back in this. Youhavecontrol, only beaten half-a-length over 7f at Carlisle 10 days ago, is worth another try over this longer trip and looks the danger with C&D winner Byron Bear having failed miserably off his new mark at Redcar next time. Jade was runner-up three times in a row earlier in the year but has fought a losing battle with the handicapper since.
