      Verdict

      Your Gifted may have been a little unlucky at Kempton last time having finished second over this course and distance earlier. But she is racing from 4lb out of the handicap and Bapak Bangsawan has been struggling off higher marks since scoring over 6f at Kempton at the start of December. Shawkantango does most of his winning at Southwell but is still preferred to the Milton Bradley pair Island legend and Solemn. TOP COP races off his lowest-ever mark and is eased in grade. He's not won since his two-year-old days but has the plum draw and could make all if holding his position at the first bend.
