VerdictInconsistent performer who ran with some credit when 6th of 14 in handicap at Newcastle over 5f (11/1) 10 days ago, raced off the pace and never nearer. Blinkers replace visor today and stepping back up to 6f might suit.

Proven performer who could bounce back after the break, though winless in last 18 races.
