        Verdict

        Noble Edge can continue the fine recent form of trainer Paul Blockley at the expense of Twilight Avenger and Woodwee in a tight little seller over 7f. The draw can often play a vital part in the outcome of these races over this trip and Noble Edge has to overcome the widest draw of all, but the bias is not as severe as either Lingfield or Wolverhampton, as the runners tend to come up the middle in the home straight. There was much to like about the performance of Noble Edge at Wolverhampton three days ago against Ten Shun. The winner had been defeated narrowly in a better race at Lingfield and Noble Edge looked set to make a race of it with the winner until not being able to find anymore inside to final furlong. Blockley is confident the step down in distance shouldn't cause a problem and the son of Bold Edge can come late to score. Mark Polglase has struck a decent run of form and has a lively contender in Twilight Avenger, who found the 6f too sharp at Wolverhampton on her latest run. The form doesn't look as strong as it first looked - both Parazone and Sounds Simila were disappointing - but Twilight Avenger was staying on strongly behind the winner Charley's Aunt after a tardy start. A previous fourth to Super Frank (who was well-handicapped) in a 0-60 handicap over this trip at Lingfield is the barometer of his chance. Woodwee, a winner of a 6f claimer here in November, will have his supporters under Robert Winston while Musical City drops to a seller after being beaten when favourite in a claimer, but in a tricky heat Noble Edge is given the nod.
