Verdict

CITY OF GOD has evidently had his problems but he did enough to suggest he retains his ability at Wolverhampton last month so shades the vote over Epictetus, who is also favoured by these terms. Zoffandia landed a gamble at Kempton last week and would be a big threat if able to back that up.

5	Won maiden at Southwell before runner-up in 2 AW handicaps this time last year. Struggled when switched to turf in the summer but showed enough to suggest he retains ability after 8 months off at Wolverhampton 4 weeks ago, caught wide and racing freely. Needs considering with headgear applied. 1st Pick 5 City Of God (Ire) Jockey: Sam James Trainer: K. R. Burke J: Sam James T: K. R. Burke	99	-	-	-	23%

6	On a long losing run but was a close third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton last month. Not in same form over 10f at Lingfield since but has never really convinced over that far. Likely to go well down in class/trip. 2nd Pick 6 Epictetus (Ire) Jockey: Jason Watson Trainer: Jamie Osborne J: Jason Watson T: Jamie Osborne	100	-	-	-	15%

4	Quirky individual but seems a more reliable proposition on AW and was impressive when winning Kempton handicap under this rider on return last week having been strong in the betting. Can make presence felt if he's in the same form. 3rd Pick 4 Zoffandia (Ire) Jockey: Ashley Lewis Trainer: Keiran Burke J: Ashley Lewis T: Keiran Burke	97	-	-	-	84%
