    Verdict

    STRICTLY SILCA finally got off the mark when scoring at Ripon in June. Mick Channon's filly only won a maiden but did so by six lengths and can go in again now she's discovered winning ways. Fortinbrass has a shout on his earlier second at Leicester but is hard to win with while Lager Time doesn't appeal as one likely to follow up off a higher mark having ended a string of placed efforts with a win at Chepstow last week. Al Udeid looks in need of further respite from the handicapper but it hasn't been forthcoming and he has to race off the same mark as when beaten over five lengths at Carlisle.
