      Verdict

      The versatile Interdit may have found a winning opportunity in a race where there are question mark about a few runners. Remarkably consistent he won well last time out in desperate conditions though his liking for good ground should stand him in good stead here. Curly Spencer will have his supporters after completing his hat-trick last time out. However he has gone up 11lbs in the handicap and he may not have his favoured soft ground. Divet Hill has been off the track since winning at this course in October. However this front-runner has run well fresh in the past and is one to consider. Indien Du Boulay has fallen to a reasonable mark and has winning form around this distance. The ground should not pose a problem so he is one for the shortlist.
