        Verdict

        Elhamri has a penalty for last week's victory over C&D when he proved too good for the re-opposing ITSTHURSDAYALREADY. However, it's difficult not to side with the latter here as he's much better off on today's revised terms including Jack Duern's claim and he gets the nod to return to winning ways. Cut The Cackle has proved better on Polytrack so far but Ridgeway Hawk is a C&D winner and is only 2lb higher today, while Bookiesindexboy gets another crack at today's distance having done all his winning over 5f to date including a couple of victories at this track.
