        Verdict

        FIRST CLASS got off the mark in similar company at Kempton last week and is taken to defy a penalty with further improvement a possibility. He has the beating of Raimond Ridge on that form and Pilgrim Dancer is preferred to the latter having produced a better effort last time when finishing third over 7f here. Ayr winner Cheyenne Red has been placed at Southwell recently and makes his debut on the Polytrack, but it's difficult to make a case for any of the remainder as they've yet to show any worthwhile form.
