        Verdict

        Winged Farasi, Formidable Guest and Boppys Pride are the three to focus on here with Winged Farasi set to make up for a runners up spot last time. A winner over ten furlongs in October, Formidable Guest ran his best race since when a staying on third at Kempton last time. He has been raised two pounds for that effort but can go well. Boppys Pride has not reproduced his turf form to the all weather recently but he had two second places to his credit on turf during the summer and a reproduction of either of those runs would see him go close. Winged Farasi has only won once in sixteen starts but he showed signs of a return to form when a good second here last time. He has been dropping down the handicap and Winged Farasi can oblige here.
