        Verdict

        INTREPID ITALIAN (NAP) returns to the Turf having missed out on a hat-trick when third in a higher grade sprint at Chelmsford. The Hannon colt looks the one to side with in this company. Gold Zabeel has placed over 7f on a couple of occasions and makes his handicap debut while Music Therapist went close over today’s trip at Windsor before struggling over 5f at Pontefract. Iconic Knight has done all his winning over the minimum trip so far and Gambon’s earlier third here came over 7f.
