      Verdict

      Dr Finley has never won in 17 starts including over hurdles while Bravo Bravo is having his first start since October and makes his debut on the all-weather. Duar Mapel has a poor strike-rate both here and in Italy and has never won on the surface while William's Way has been beaten a very long way on his two most recent starts after scoring at Southwell. Stan Moore should take this with either Quinsman, who tackles the trip for the first time, or ROSEWOOD LAD, who gets the vote after Cathy Gannon produced him late to score over the C&D earlier this month.
