    Verdict

    An uninspiring finale in which Safe Enough is given the verdict over Its Wallace and Road Train. Nick Gifford's representative ran a respectable race on his return from absence although he perhaps blotted his copybook with a couple of mistakes over the last few obstacles. The Gifford team are known for their patience with long term absentees so it would not be the biggest surprise to see Safe Enough capable of taking advantage of a lowly mark. Its' Wallace is a likeable enough type who has served as the stable talisman for many a moon. He will not want for sheer effort although the combination of topweight and a good surface make good grounds for taking him on. Super Road Train appears a much better performer on this surface having floundered on softer going during the winter. He looks still open to improvement. Yesyes is watched in the market while Audiostreetdotcom very much has a mind of his own. Safe Enough is given our selection in a tough opener.
