      Verdict

      Sorry, folks, but this is not a very good race atall. However, they all take winning and someone somewhere will be made happy by the its outcome. Magic Warrior won here over 15 furlongs from a mark of 70 (25 today and racing in a first-time visor) in May 1999 but has had training problems and shown little since. However, a market move would be interesting. Lilardo is 5lbs higher than for a 12f win here in September and has won two of her last five races, so has chances. Adalpour should stay two miles all right on breeding and is 4lbs higher than for a 12f Southwell win on January 14. Urgent Swift has some good course efforts (including once over c/d) last summer but is unraced since August. Again, a market move could be interesting. Evezio Rufo was trounced by Jamaican Flight (literal form with same horse means he is not well weighted with Established) four days ago over today's c/d from the same mark, but did win at Southwell a year ago from a mark of 47 (now 39). Established won three times on Turf last year (from a high of 38, now 28), and has won twice here over 15 furlongs (from a highest mark of 35). Cead Mile Failte won a Leicester claimer in July and has chances on bits of form. Overall, Established gets the vote.
