      Verdict

      The veteran Clockmaker runs over further than a mile for the first time today and is not badly weighted if staying the distance. Carragold scored over track and trip at this time last year but is 5lb higher for this while Blades Lad and Lean On Pete have both scored over course and distance before but are are rare winners nowadays. KINGSCOMBE could only plug-on at one pace in the closing stages over 1m4f here last time when runner-up. This shorter trip should suit on that evidence and he gets the vote.
