Verdict
This is anybody's race with the token vote going the way of TOM SAWYER. He should be bang there at the finish with a repeat of his latest fourth at Lingfield. Generalyse won a maiden over 6f here last time but is drawn out with the washing as is recent course runner-up Another Citizen. Avonvalley has claims back over the minimum trip though he's 10lb higher than August's win over C&D and Upper Lambourn makes more appeal off his current mark.
