      Verdict

      SUNSET BOULEVARD has been in better form of late on the all-weather without looking like winning but that's still more than can be said for most of these. He rates no more than a cautious selection back on the turf. Thundering Home was spotted making late headway at Lingfield on his latest start but hasn't won since early last year, while Miss Bounty scored on the all-weather last month, but that was over a mile and a visor replaces the usual cheekpieces today. Mister Bit may improve for the application of blinkers but the remainder have no recent form to recommend them.
