        Verdict

        BA DREAMFLIGHT looks the best option for Hughie Morrison in the finale and he is selected in preference to Covert Mission and Elite Land. The last named did well to maintain his effort when taken very wide at Catterick when he was last seen out. That is testament to his willing attitude and, even though he looks to be in the grip of the handicapper, he can give each-way punters a good run for the cash. By contrast, Covert Mission made the most of a drop in the weights to win a minor handicap on his penultimate start before going close when switched back to the all-weather last time out. He races off the same mark today and has to merit respect at this level. However, Ba Dreamflight also confirmed his well being with a solid effort at Nottingham 12 days ago and, as he has the scope to improve over this new trip, the son of Noverre gets the nomination. Kylkenny also represents the same yard and, as he is now 12lb below his last winning rating, it would come as no surprise to see this admirable 13-year-old go close to making this worth venture for the Morrison team.
