      Verdict

      Another race that won’t take much winning. Pettochside still pops up now and again but is giving weight to his rivals and ran poorly at Brighton only four days ago, though is still preferred to stablemate Flowing Clarets. Jamie Osborne is also double-handed and both his pair have a chance at the weights. Ambient drops back from a mile but is now 0-30 so the vote goes to THE RIGHT CHOICE. Recent form figures don’t inspire confidence but the cheekpieces are back on here and he does have form on the going. Blaine is not the force of old while Voltaic may find a drop in trip and the ground against him.
