      Verdict

      BEHTARINI was placed on the Flat in Ireland in 2010 and won twice over hurdles for Evan Williams in June. With the potential for improvement back on the level, he gets the nod. Private Story beat lower rated rivals over a shorter trip here in June but has plenty to find on today's terms with Geanie Mac. The latter may do better stepping up in trip today while Maid Of Meft scored over 2m at Newcastle last year and should be thereabouts. Falcun is likely to be staying on at the finish without being good enough.
