        Verdict

        Mike De Kock has four entries here with Banaadeer possibly the best of them as he was beaten a short-head by stable companion Anaerobio over 7f here a year ago. Johann Strauss is the best handicapped of the quartet as he was racing at the very highest level here last term but hasn't run since March. STEADY PACE will take some catching after just failing to hold on from Final Venture a couple of weeks ago. He'd won over an extra furlong here last season and can see off the challenge of the winner this time. Jamesie, who finished a close third and was staying on, was having his first start since September and should get into the action. Baccarat had just one start here last season and won a very strong handicap so the lack of a recent run shouldn't be a problem.
