    Verdict

    Reachforthebucks sauntered home to land the odds and a hat-trick at Kempton a week ago and may not have finished improving yet. However, he's facing a stiff task under his double penalty and another chance is given to ALONEINTHESTREET. Mark Johnston's charge ran as though something was amiss when tailed off at Kempton last time, but was an easy winner over C&D before that and has scope for improvement back on this surface. Both One Pursuit and Unwrapit face a difficult task on their handicap debuts, while Littlepromisedland looks to have no chance from well out of the handicap.
