      Verdict

      ENCOURAGEABLE struggled in Listed company before beaten a length over track and trip on his handicap debut. Clear of the rest on that occasion, he can go one better. Million Thanks has a shout on an earlier second at Pontefract while Point Lynas should be spot on now after a better effort at Doncaster. War Of Words makes his handicap debut and is preferred to the more exposed Ana Gold and Spirit Catcher.
