      Verdict

      Wee Charlie Castle is our selection in this contest with Dancing Jest and Shabahar respected. Greg Chung's five-year-old has gone close on a couple of occasions and may have won on Saturday were it not a hands and heels contest that he was contesting. Oscar Urbina will be able to use the stick today and that encouragement might just be enough to stir him into victory. Dancing Jest appears to reserve his best for this track and after another credible effort earlier in the month, he's sure to have plenty of friends this afternoon. Shabahar is still feasibly handicapped in relation to his old form. Ground seems not to faze him. Harvest Joy is back off a winning mark. Anduril ran his best race for some time when chasing home Emperor's Well at Thirsk. Riqaab takes a tumble down the weights following a no show at Goodwood on handicap introduction. Life's A Whirl has it to do to avoid adding to a long losing run. A modest contest that can go the way of Wee Charlie Castle.
