        Verdict

        Seahorse Syd won a lower grade contest at Newcastle last month while Free Speech made a winning handicap debut at Chelmsford and is only 4lb higher. VOLCANOLOGY is another recent winner having landed a maiden over a mile at Brighton and she gets the vote over this extra distance handicapping for the first time. Courageous Strike also steps up in trip for a new yard having failed to win in Ireland.
