        Verdict

        The hands-and-heels apprentice handicap that closes the card is a tricky event, and in it we cautiously side with Chasing The Dream but most of the field can be given chances. Running through the runners. Gabana ran well from the same mark at Yarmouth last time and should appreciate the stiffer mile he will encounter today. Chasing The Dream's third in a Classified Stakes race at Windsor last time reads very well in the context of this contest, while Miss Inkha hinted at better at Goodwood last time and Miss Porcia has been running well from her current mark and has form enough to feature today. Even Easier seems to lack gear changes while Knickynackienoo has yet to win a race but has been knocking at the door. With the well-bred and lightly-raced Ask The Driver looking very fairly weighted on a mark of just 53, this race has a competitive look. The tentative selection from us is Chasing The Dream, whose stable is renowned for doing well with inexperienced riders.
