    Verdict

    Tomily dotted up in a Windsor seller and has joined David O'Meara. Little more than a year ago he was rated 104 for the Hannon yard so it will be fascinating to see what his new handler can do with the Canford Cliffs gelding off a mark of 77. This looks a decent starting point at which to identify just how much of that previous ability remains and he could well make a winning start for new connections. Irish raider ART OF UNITY (NAP) does receive preference though as he landed victory in what looked a better race at Hamilton on Saturday prior to which he'd performed consistently well in large-field sprint handicaps in Ireland and Sean Davis is an excellent booking. Metal Exchange is unexposed and fairly treated with Scuzeme also meriting respect.
