        Verdict

        This is very much a case of 'whose turn is it today'. And we opt to take our chance with Welsh Wind, who has been holding his form well enough to expect him to make a bold bid to turn the tables on Buscador. The moods of the David Evans-trained Alafzar are hard to predict these days, but he has ability and has to be considered as a live danger in this company, while Mobo Baco is another to consider if he attracts any interest from the betting ring. However, they are all hard to win with and need everything to drop right. Buscador, like the selection arrives here in great heart and will be no push over if he continues to thrive. However, the 7lb claimer Adam Kirby has already been a decisive factor in getting the best out the nine-year-old this season and the partnership have plenty in their favour from a draw on the rails today.
