    Verdict

    There's not a great deal between these on these terms so it could pay to stick with the least exposed and that's DESERT RANGER. He made a winning start over course and distance last month and the runner-up has since boosted the form by winning. Beautiful Stranger's win came on the Fibresand and he was well beaten here last time albeit in better company. Rose Buck has been placed in handicaps since landing her maiden while Sherston made the frame at Lingfield on his comeback. Chookie's Lass scored over track and trip in November but has finished nearer last either side of that success.
