        Verdict

        Bosphorus can take what is little better than a seller, with Dear Sir and Leophin Dancer in with a shout also. The latter has the assistance of Lisa Jones who has only ridden Peter Hiatt's charge once before, when the combination were beaten a short head in a Catterick seller. Dear Sir meanwhile has only had five career outings, including a trip to Bangor over hurdles. he was made to look woefully one-paced in weak company at Goodwood last time and the fact that he gets a mention shows just how bad this contest is. Bosphorus has been plying his trade on the all-weather and did not run too badly at Wolverhampton the time before last. He is at least consistent and in an event in which bets are best kept to the very minimum, David Bridgewater's charge gets the vote.
