      Verdict

      Murbih beat Mellys Flyer here before finishing last of 10 while Catesby never figured last time having won over track and trip earlier. El Hombre was partnered by a claimer when scoring at Lingfield and is effectively 8lb higher today so the vote goes to GISELLES IZZY on her recent placed efforts at Southwell. Under The Twilight has been thereabouts over 7f lately and looks best of the rest.
