      Verdict

      MEHMO was beaten only a neck at Musselburgh last week and gets another chance to finally open his account with William Buick taking over the reins. Red Walls came good at Wolverhampton recently and is 5lb higher while Expert Opinion went close over track and trip before struggling at Bath and headgear is applied. Needwood Blossom placed at Brighton last time and Morty may do better now handicapping for the first time.
