        Verdict

        Lazy Sioux scored over track and trip off a 3lb lower mark in July while the veteran Oldjoesaid has tumbled down the weights since winning here last year, though a high draw hasn't helped his cause. Perfect Words, Fortinbrass and Zebelini could bounce back at any time off their current marks and Anieres Boy remains unexposed having only his second start in a handicap. But the speculative vote goes to GEORGE BAILEY, now back on the same mark as when scoring over course and distance during the summer with Beauty's Forte well behind.
