      Verdict

      This bunch don't look any great shakes so it may be worth chancing Toni Alcala to follow up his Southwell success eight days ago. Roger Fisher's charge is proven on the surface and should be thereabouts. The form of Two Marks second at Catterick has been let down subsequently but he can't be lightly dismissed, nor can Dune, who's trainer Roger Charlton has a good record at the track. System will have his supporters but looks to suffer from a touch of the "slows".
