        Verdict

        Unless the newcomers prove to be anything out of the ordinary and Simonside looks the pick of them, this should go to SMOOTH SOVEREIGN, who gets the verdict ahead of The Staffy. Nick Vaughan's gelding made a pleasing debut in a seven furlong Kempton maiden in December and, if staying this longer trip, has every chance. David Barron's Spartan Prince stepped up on his debut effort when a fair fourth here last time and he makes more appeal than Ensnare, who has been well held in both starts so far. Rosko has been well held in both starts in bumpers and on his flat racing debut last time and it is hard to oppose Smooth Sovereign. Mark Johnston's gelding has not been seen for a year but a reproduction of his debut effort may well suffice in this company.
