Verdict

This could set up perfectly for ZIGGY'S TRITON and Mo Of Cairo, with David O'Meara's charge narrowly preferred to his 3-y-o counterpart. Emperor Caradoc and Dolos Dream are no back numbers, either, in what looks a competitive sprint.

1	Successful twice this year, taking advantage of a drop into this grade at York in July. Back to his best when ½-length second to a lightly-raced one ahead of his mark in a similar event at Southwell last week. Leading claims to go one better in a race that should be run to suit. 1st Pick 1 Ziggy's Triton (Ire) Jockey: Conor Whiteley Trainer: David O'meara J: Conor Whiteley T: David O'meara	100	-	-	-	25%

7	Shaped as if a second career win is nearing when runner-up (well backed) at Musselburgh (5f, good) 3 days ago, sticking to the task well having been briefly checked in his run. Likely strong pace will suit on that evidence and he has to be high on the shortlist. 2nd Pick 7 Mo Of Cairo Jockey: Kevin Stott Trainer: Kevin Ryan J: Kevin Stott T: Kevin Ryan	99	-	-	-	36%

13	Course winner who caught the eye with some good late work (not given at all a hard time) when 4 lengths behind Accrual at Ripon last week. Now 6 lb below his latest winning mark. Entitled to go close given how this is likely to unfold. 3rd Pick 13 Emperor Caradoc (Fr) Jockey: James Sullivan Trainer: Paul Midgley J: James Sullivan T: Paul Midgley	98	-	-	-	7%
