    Verdict

    Custom Design gets the confident vote in the finale with Mr Shambles, and Jontys' Lass rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair third behind Wot Way Chief last time out, is sure to have come on for the run and of the same mark here and under conditions that suit he looks the one to be on. Mr Shambles rates the main danger on his best form but he was very disappointing for no apparent reason last time out so he can not be put forward with any confidence. Jonty's Lass is game and consistent and is sure to run her race but she looks weighted up to her best. Of the remainder Seafire Lad is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but he will do well to win from out of the handicap and with this in mind for the winner we return to Custom Design.
