    Verdict

    A tricky handicap to end the card and a narrow vote is given to Kew The Music, with Owed and Parkview Lass put forward as the main rivals. This seven-year-old gained due reward for three consistent efforts when successful here last week. He won with a little bit in hand that day and can follow up again this afternoon.Owed returned from a long lay of to beat Windy Prospect here back in January. He wasn't disgraced next time when chasing home Flying Bantam and another big run can be expected. Park View Lass is the choice of the Shaw yard from three five day possibles and she comes here in great form having been successful at lingfield last time out. Shifty would have a chance on the pick of last season's form and may do best of the others, however Kew The Music is at the top of his game and he gets the verdict.
