      Verdict

      It's difficult to be confident about any of these. BUNCE gets a speculative vote as he's been competing in a higher grade since scoring at Musselburgh last month. Jim Goldie is mob-handed with five runners and Monel making most appeal of those ahead of Funding Deficit. Dartrix remains out of form and L'Ami Louis has yet to show any improvement for his slide down the handicap.
