      Verdict

      Mr Rigsby was most impressive when taking a seven furlong seller here in September and can add to that success this afternoon, Lasting Love Mad Professor could be the main rivals. Seb Sanders made plenty of use of this gelding when taking that contest, having the race won a long way from home. As that was his first ever outing he looks set to improve and there should be no worries about the drop in trip. Mad Professor is from a yard that do well with their all-weather runners and he has shown enough on the turf to warrant every respect here. Lasting Love has shown plenty of promise in three races to date, including on the all-weather at Southwell. There could be more improvement to come and he could go close in the weak affair. Half Pint Bill is another to consider for each-way purposes, but our idea of the winner is Mr Rigsby.
