        Verdict

        Diplomatic has proved best over a mile so far as when beating Officer In Command at this track last month though the latter is weighted to reverse running. Hawaana and Neige D'Antan were both placed in lesser company on their latest outings and Bramshill Lass is 6lb higher than when scoring over a longer trip here in September. Despite looking thoroughly exposed, Chrissycross popped-up at 20/1 last time and has to prove that was no fluke but KELPIE BLITZ looks capable of winning off his current mark judged on his latest close-up fourth at Lingfield and he gets the nod in an open affair.
