      Verdict

      It's hard to get away from COTTON KING here. He ran out an easy winner over 1m4f at this track last time and a 6lb penalty may not be enough to stop him following up in this company. Amical Risks ran poorly here last month but finished third to Straversjoy before that and a repeat should see him thereabouts. Leyte Gulf won over 2m here in November and is dropping down a grade, while there should be more to come from Ergo stepping up in distance. Juwireya could figure if translating her Fibresand form to this surface.
