        Verdict

        Carvelas and Hard Toffee are course and distance winners but both were well beaten here last week though the former didn't get the run of the race. N Over J hasn't won since his debut back in 2017 and has been beaten from this mark five times in recent weeks. OFFICER DRIVEL is 1-23 on the all-weather but has been narrowly beaten the last twice in similar company. Connections will be disappointed with a 5lb rise but he still looks to have the edge over Telekinetic, beaten 16 lengths at Southwell last week.
