        Verdict

        MACHO MAC gets the vote to defy a hike in the weights given he won as he liked over course and distance last month when beating the favourite by six lengths. Red Touch recorded a double here early last year but has not raced since May while recent Wolverhampton winner Sands Chorus ran poorly at the track on his only previous visit. Custard The Dragon scored over track and trip last time but is upped in class for this while Harwoods Star has been thereabouts over 6f here and War Department has placed at Newcastle recently.
