      Verdict

      Top Cop made the most of a slide down the weights when scoring here three weeks ago but Kimbali will find life tougher off a 5lb higher mark having won over 7f at this track in November. DESERT STRIKE has been in better form of late and finished ahead of Intrepid when third over 5f last time. Conor Dore's charge is equally effective over this extra furlong and gets the nod. Daring Dragon has claims back on the Polytrack and Amosite can figure if in the mood.
