    Verdict

    BEFORTYFOUR hasn't won for some time but is streets clear of the rest of the field on official ratings. If he reproduces his run at Beverley last month where he was beaten less than a length in a decent handicap, he'll take all the beating. Mottley Crewe could prove next best back on the Polytrack after a woeful effort on turf last time and C&D winner Decider can never be written off competing at this level. Jigajig showed something like his best at Pontefract last time and should be thereabouts, while Grudge also has place claims if in the mood.
