Verdict
Ian Williams looks to hold the aces here with PARLANDO and Trojan Storm. Preference is for the former, who bolted up at Chelmsford last week and is technically 3 lb 'well in' carrying a penalty. His stablemate was successful returning from an absence here earlier in the year, so he heads up the opposition ahead of Unassuming, who seemed to finish with plenty more to give at Kempton 9 days ago.

Verdict4/1, quickly back to his best as he finally got off the mark in Britain in 11-runner handicap at this C&D 13 days ago, leading over 1f out. 3 lb rise not insurmountable so should go well again.- 7. Trojan StormJ: Charles BishopT: Ian WilliamsF: 364-17331

Verdict11/2, proved suited by the step up in trip as he produced a career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Ascot (14.2f, firm) when last seen in July. Significantly down in trip and certainly not dismissed having won back from a 10-month absence here earlier in the year.

Verdict3/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, failed to build on the promise of previous run when last of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 11 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Visor on 1st time. Others more persuasive.

VerdictCourse winner. Latest win at Windsor in July. 12/1, probably needed the run after 4 months off when last of 12 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 9 days ago. Likely to be much closer to form here but others more appealing from a win perspective.- Unnamed Favourite
