Verdict

KINGSWINFORD comes out best at the weights and scored over C&D on his last visit to this track. He also won in similar company at Salisbury last month before being well beaten in a hot handicap at Ascot last week and looks the one to beat. Silver Wind has been thereabouts in lowly handicaps on the Polytrack though at his best, Efistorm makes more appeal as he won this race last year. Desert Strike is also capable at this level but is struggling for form and it's hard to make a case for the remainder on these terms.
