    Verdict

    Turn Me On, Justcallmehandsome and Primeshade Promise look the most likely winners of this race and we like Turn Me On. Tim Walford's string have been fairly consistent under the National Hunt code of late and while Turn Me On proved a disappointing favourite last time out, he does have the services of Mark Walford this afternoon. Justcallmehandsome enjoyed a lucrative campaign on the artifical surfaces during the Autumn. The handicapper has had plenty of chance to get a grip and more is required here. Primeshade Promise is exposed as moderate. That said, she tries hard in spite of a lack of natural ability and could run a fair race at a price. Beck is noted in the market as the three-year-old will be in receipt of plenty of weight all around. Darley castoff Ochre has fewer miles on the clock than most and could be anything. Border Artist has yet to oblige in 27 tries on the all-weather but did put up one of her better efforts at Lingfield on her most recent start. Turn Me On has plenty of ticks in the right boxes and secures the nomination.
