Verdict

FINAL ATTACK won with a bit to spare over a longer trip here recently and is a course and distance winner. He finished in front of Christmas Night when runner-up here earlier and gets the vote in his current form. Global Acclamation went close over track and trip on his penultimate start but was raised 5lb for that and disappointed last time. Don'tyouwantmebaby posted her best effort so far on her only previous start at this venue while Cooperess rarely wins but was placed at Lingfield recently.
