      Verdict

      The claimer can go to Boston Lodge, with Contractor appearing to be the main thorn in his side. Paul Cole's charge can boast fair placed form of late, including an excellent second to Grand Passion in a class B handicap at Newmarket in July. He lost no caste in defeat at Salisbury last time either and with Kieren Fallon on board, must go close to gaining his fourth career win. Contractor will ensure that the selection does not have things entirely his own way though. Terry Mills' inmate has been unlucky lately, having looked all set to follow up his Sandown victory in July on his next outing here until collared close home. It was the same again on a return to Sandown when Binanti denied him in the dying strides, and if only the handicapper would relent, more success would surely come his way. Capulette and Hoh Investor should make their presence felt as well, but for the answer we return to Boston Lodge.
