    Verdict

    Paul Midgley has a good recent record in this and runs two. Rantan landed a seller at Thirsk in May but NINJAGO scored off a higher mark at Newmarket last season and it could be his turn today with Daniel Tudhope’s presence another positive. Grandad's World finished in front of Cosmic Chatter when placed over track and trip last time but is upped in class while Etikaal has been thereaboots over 7f lately and has the beating of Full Intention. Dandy Highwayman is back on a winning mark but out of form at present.
