        Verdict

        Kano's Ghirl had her first run for new connections behind the prolific Strategic Heights last month but this is her first attempt beyond 5f. CATWILLDO also finished behind that winner last time when attempting to concede weight. She had beaten him in January and should be up to taking this with Gary Philips' claim a bonus. Tsar Paul hasn't won on this surface since 2010 and has done all of his racing in recent years at longer trips. Boughtforasong is still a maiden after 21 starts but is rarely beaten far and has dropped to a very winnable mark. Cappadocia scored twice for Mick Channon at Kempton and has dropped just enough in the ratings to get her into this race though he appeared to do better over 7f last time.
