    Verdict

    Telegraph comes out best of those with a handicap rating but ran a shocker at Salisbury last time and his earlier form is not much better than Hoy Hoy's. The latter drops back in trip after a couple of modest efforts over a mile. It's even harder to make a case for the remainder with experience though Crazy Train and Sunsational Girl have only raced in bumpers so far. DEBIT is the half-brother to Group 3 winning sprinter Habaayib and may well be good enough to make a winning start in such low-key company. Clive Cox' charge gets the vote.
