    Verdict

    Piazon scored over the minimum trip here last month and is 3lb higher today while Fink Hill also won over 5f in novice company here on his penultimate start though has been beaten in a handicap since. Ticks The Boxes never threatened the winner when runner-up over track and trip recently but FIRST EXCEL (NAP) went close when headed in the closing stages over course and distance last time and Roy Bowring's charge is fancied to go one better having won three times in only six previous starts on this surface. Coiste Bodhar pops-up at this level when the mood takes him and Dreamboat Annie debuts at the track after placing at Chelmsford.
