Verdict

The vote goes to PARADOXICAL, who has been plying his trade over 1½m of late but was a winner and close second in back-to-back C&D handicaps in December. He remains on a workable mark, depsite being 10 lb higher than for his latest success, and shades preference ahead of English Spirit, who returned to form when hitting the crossbar here recently and a reproduction of that effort would put him firmly in the picture. Golspie makes some each-way appeal.
