      Verdict

      EDE'S DOT COM has the best recent form of these having won twice on the Polytrack earlier this year. He wasn't beaten that far at Newbury on his latest start and can return to winning ways in this less competitive event. Goose Green has won twice over C&D though that was back in 2009, while this is a big step up in trip for last year's dual sprint winner Kate Skate. The remainder have no recent form to speak of but Escardo may do better stepping back up in distance.
