      Verdict

      Therthaar notched-up a hat-trick of course wins at this time last year but has something to prove off his current mark on his reappearance. Siouxperhero won here last month but never figured on his latest start while Ravenhoe was well beaten at Pontefract last week though has a shout on his earlier third over 1m2f at Chelmsford. But DEEP CHALLENGER is getting steadily closer and with this longer trip likely to suit on his handicap debut he gets the vote to open his his account.
