      Verdict

      It took a while for the penny to drop with MAN LOOK but he dotted up in a conditionals’ maiden at Sedgefield in May. He doesn’t get a penalty for that and, with his yard back in form, is the one to beat here as Golden Town has had plenty of opportunities but has always found at least one too good so far. Sense Of Urgency never figured on her hurdles bow having gone close in a Kelso bumper earlier while The King's Steed was a poor maiden on the Flat.
