        Verdict

        Gambino ran well at Haydock and has a course and distance victory to his credit so has to be a threat but MOWHOOB is more likely to enjoy the easier going. Jim Goldie's charge won twice over 7f here last summer and is 5lb lower than his last victory in June. Act Your Shoe Size was running from a mark of 80 when last winning a race almost two years ago and is now 21lb lower so she should take a hand along with Cono Zur, who gained the 10th victory of his career at Ayr last month though generally likes faster going.
