    Verdict

    Don Cantillon's ISITCOZIMCOOL has won his last two starts, the first of which was over course and distance, and he can defy the 7lb penalty for his latest success at Kempton and complete a hat-trick off a 10lb higher mark than when winning here previously with the main dangers rated as Pendragon and Magic Haze. Sally Hall's gelding overcame inexperience of the surface when landing a handicap over course and distance last week when beating Mackintosh (runs in 4.50 race) by a length and he goes without a penalty for that success as it came in a race for apprentice jockeys. Fitzolini has been running well on the Polytrack of late but has yet to prove his effectiveness on the Fibresand, while Mel Brittain's Plenilune remains a maiden after 21 starts. Tony Newcombe's Hint of Honey is likely to struggle off a 6lb higher mark than when scoring here last time and of more interest may be Brian Ellison's Pendragon, who should appreciate the return to the flat having been pulled up over hurdles last time. Isitcozimcool has an obvious chance of winning again though and is taken to do just that.
