    Verdict

    We will give Ours another chance of getting his head in front with Sarraaf and Beck both big dangers in a competitive handicap. The selection was touted to go close last time out when having to settle for second place behind Dado Mush at Southwell last week. He gets another chance off the same mark and being the ultra consistent type he is sure to give punters another run for their money. Sarraaf comes into the race off the back of two fair efforts various distances. His last win came over seven furlongs but this slightly longer trip he has not won over for over four years which raises question marks. Beck carries a penalty for his win over course and distance last time out and it will remain to be seen whether he is capable of winning with such a burden. So for the winner we return to Ours.
