        Verdict

        Charlie Cool comes out best at the weights but has failed three times in claimers this year when a short-priced favourite. Flowing Cape made no mistake when landing the odds in similar company here earlier this month, though he's yet to win over further than 7f and BOLODENKA makes more appeal. Richard Fahey's charge landed a couple of claiming races on the turf in August and looks the safest option here. Councellor has tumbled down the weights and could prove best of the remainder after a better effort last time.
