        Verdict

        LYTHAM has won two of his last three starts since dropping down into this grade and Tony Carroll's veteran can continue his winning ways in this similar company. Angelena Ballerina may give him most to think about as she's gone close at this level before including when runner-up at Kempton on her latest start with Bubbly Braveheart well beaten. Hollywood All Star has a shout dropping back in distance but it's difficult to make a serious case for any of the rest given their current poor form.
