      Verdict

      Papa Stour was having only his second start for Andrew Balding when comfortably landing a Class 5 handicap at Wolverhampton on Thursday for which he's penalised. SHERIFF also has extra for a very impressive all-the-way victory over a mile at Kempton on Saturday and he looks the type to go on to better things. Michael Bell has booked a 5lb claimer for the ride and a quick double looks on the cards. Hard Graft has been raised 7lb for scoring over the course and distance last month when Helen Sherbet was beaten over six lengths. The latter has since run much better here on New Year's Day and it would be no surprise to see a form reversal at the revised weights. Pastamakesufaster is by no means out of this as he made all for a convincing victory over this trip at Goodwood before running in a Listed contest in France then finding an extended mile at Wolverhampton beyond him.
