        Verdict

        GIANTSTEPSAHEAD was beaten nine lengths when runner-up over track and trip last time but still finished well ahead of Waahej. The latter has been in woeful form of late so Michael Wigham's charge is taken to confirm running and finally get off the mark. Goldie Horn has a placed effort at Southwell to her credit while Sea The Flames made the frame over 2m at Chepstow last month and that's about the best form on offer from the remaining participants.
