Verdict
Capaill Liath won a similar event over 7f here last month and has a leading chance once again. He should confirm running with Light From Mars and has a bit in hand with other recent winners Countryman, George Fenton and Dark Lane on today's terms. Titus Gent should have finished closer in a claimer over 5f here last time so a chance is taken on WEST LEAKE DIMAN. The latter's poor form has seen him tumble 14lb down the weights this year but the drop into this grade may bring about a revival.
