    Verdict

    Jacaranda and Sewmuch Character are among those with claims in this extended seven-furlong contest but the vote goes to Mount Hesse in the hope that there is more to come from his recent reappearance. Geoff Wragg's gelding looked in need of the run when down the field behind Grizedale at Goodwood last month and should have come on a bundle for that. He gets the nod under regular pilot Darryll Holland. Brian Meehan's Jacaranda is 9lbs higher than when winning at Newbury two starts ago and, judged by his last time out run at Leicester, appears to be in the handicapper's grip. A similar comment applies to Pontefract winner Sewmuch Character and a bigger threat may come from Gilded Dancer, a recent winner here over seven furlongs. However, the vote goes to Mount Hesse.
