        Verdict

        Steely Dan gets the confident nomination in this handicap to round off the card, with Kashimo, Madhahir and Transcendantale the others for the shortlist. The gelding from the John Best yard has been in sparkling form of late and he returns to the the turf on a good mark and looks the one they all have to beat. Kashimo is back on the flat after an outing over hurdles, and he has shown enough promise for his new connections to make him interesting here, although he still has plenty to prove. Madhahir won well last time out at Folkestone when defeating Man The Gate, but this is slightly more difficult and he may not be suited by the drop in trip as his stamina is one of his strengths. Transcendantale is the other that could go well on the pick of his form, but his efforts tailed off towards the back end of last season and he is best watched on this occasion, so for the winner we will stick with the in-form Steely Dan.
