    Verdict

    Johnston¿s Glory, Medici Time and Cornus look the most interesting runners here, with Johnston¿s Glory taken to make a winning seasonal re-appearance. Cornus shaped well when third in a decent Leicester handicap last time, and he comes here with a fitness edge over most of his rivals and can go well. Medici Time is a little inconsistent, but he showed his ability at Redcar in October, and hails from a yard that can get them ready first time. Johnston¿s Glory is a progressive type, collecting three handicap successes in good style at the end of last season. Johnston¿s Glory has only been raised 6lbs and can take the finale.
