        Verdict

        Bacacarat opened his account over a mile at Haydock recently and attempts this longer trip for the first time. Mearing is another upped in trip though has won in soft going at Carlisle while there was cut in the ground when DANCE LEGEND won a novices race over today’s distance at Ripon earlier. Rae Guest’s filly gets another chance in this despite returning from a lay-off having struggled in Listed company back in May. Breathable looks high enough in the weights and Mont Kinabalu has lost his form since landing a double early in the season.
