        Verdict

        Ezdiyaad is progressing nicely and gets the vote here ahead of Grande Caiman and Bergonzi. Marcus Tregoning's charge came good at the third time of asking when conmfortably beating Know The Law. The runner up and third have both run well since, and with further improvement to come he looks the one to be on. Grande Caiman is making a belated return to the track but ended last year with an impressive victory at Kempton and doesn't look badly treated for his handicap debut. Meanwhile Bergonzi has taken on some very good handicappers this season and still looks on a favourable mark. Eglevski hasn't really progressed as expected this season but still looks best of the others. However Ezdiyaad has any amount of improvement to come and he gets the decision.
