      Verdict

      Ten Down wasn't beaten far on Wednesday and he looks worth another chance here; the list of dangers is headed by Wee Buns and Kamal. The selection finished second behind Style Award in a handicap at Lingfield and now that he is dropped into a claimer he is hard to oppose. He also has the best of the draw which will be ideal for him to adopt his frontrunning tactics. Wee Buns should not be discounted lightly though as he has been in good form in this grade of late and he should be the one to profit if the selection fails to fire. Kamal disappointed last time but he was well-backed that day and he is eased in grade so a watching brief on the market is again advised. It will be a surprise if Yattendon or Arkando are good enough and this looks a good opportunity for Ten Down to return to winning ways.
