Verdict

The vote goes to TELEMARK, who has shaped well both starts since returning from a summer break and he's now 1 lb below the mark off which he landed a Doncaster handicap on good to soft last September. Glenfinnan is greatly respected on the back of a fine second in a valuable race in Ireland, while Uncle Don merits respect off this mark and Kodi Lion could also have a part to play back at 7f.
