      Verdict

      Richard Fahey has trained the winner of this in three of the last seven years and his Cotton Camera will be fancied to recoup losses incurred when she missed the break on her debut at Beverley. But we just prefer David Brown's TIKTHEBOX, a son of Approve who showed plenty of speed on his introduction at Leicester. Bossipop may be suited by an extra furlong but Kevin Ryan's debutant is interesting given he's a half-brother to a winning sprinter.
