      Verdict

      TINSELTOWN has a 7lb penalty to deal with after impressing here on the last day of May. He was previously in consistently good form in ordinary handicap hurdle company and his overall profile looks the best on offer as his rivals have shown little of substance to date. He can concede weight all round. Capricornus was modest for Ferdy Murphy in 11 starts and now has his first outing for Tim Vaughan, which is often the best time to catch many of the Welsh handler's inmates. Smart George has also yet to sparkle for the Twiston-Davies team, whilst Strandfield Bay has just the one piece of fair form to his name in seven hurdling starts.
