      Verdict

      Sir Boss is saddled with a 12lb penalty for completing a double over the C&D but has won in this grade from just a 1lb lower mark in the past. DE RIGUEUR looks the one to be on as he won several times in Germany and had Sir Boss 3l behind when scoring over the C&D last month and is better off at the weights. Alazan is better known as a jumper these days but there was plenty to like about his run behind Mica Mika here last week and he should get involved but Focail Maith appeared to find the 6lb extra for his Lingfield success just too much to handle there a week later. Nelson's Bay tackles the trip and an artificial surface for the first time but should be suited and rates a threat.
