      Verdict

      Those returning to action have the strongest form with BUSSENTO preferred. The latter has a handicap rating of 86 having finished clear of a subsequent dual winner when beaten a neck at Newbury in September. Cicero's Gift won at the latter track in October but is penalised for that success while Docklands went close at Haydock in August on his debut and looks best of the rest ahead of Seahrena.
