Verdict

Two-time C&D winner CLASSIC ENCOUNTER has strong form claims and may well land a nice pot for shrewd connections. Law Of Design looks the chief threat off his much-reduced mark, while Double Parked is closely matched with the selection on their form from earlier in the season here. Fellow C&D winners Welbury and Rajapour also merit consideration.

2	Has previously hit the frame in much better company than this. Only pipped by another useful sort when bidding to make it 3-3 over C&D in June. Probably been laid out for this since chasing home a couple of next-time-out winners at Lingfield in July. Strong claims. 1st Pick 2 Classic Encounter (Ire) Jockey: Pat Cosgrave Trainer: George Boughey J: Pat Cosgrave T: George Boughey	100	-	-	-	19%

13	Tumbled in the weights since handicap debut for Brian Meehan last season. Has found some form in recent starts, doing well to 'win his race' among the disadvantaged group when 3¾-length third over C&D latest. In a better race than ideal but he's well treated if building on that for in-form stable. 2nd Pick 13 Law Of Design (Ire) Jockey: T. Kiely-Marshall Trainer: Ian Williams J: T.

5	Likely to have landed a third C&D success had he knuckled down better (behind Classic Encounter) here in June. Made amends with a career-best win at York (1¼m) later that month. Only beaten 5 lengths in stronger event at York last time and has to be respected returning to this track. 3rd Pick 5 Double Parked (Ire) Jockey: David Allan Trainer: Tim Easterby J: David Allan T: Tim Easterby	97	-	-	-	25%
