          Verdict

          The Gaikwar won well three days ago and if in the same frame of mind he can score again at the main expense of Murumbidgee and The Grey One. Having won over course and distance before, the selection goes well on the ground and was very impressive just three days ago at Chepstow. He travelled well and then quickened clear to win in good fashion and if on song once again he may take some stopping. Dispol Veleta should come on for a decent fourth three weeks ago and should be considered along with the consistent Foolish Charm. Charlie Bear will need to forget his poor last run if he is to trouble the judge today, so of more interest may be Murumbidgee. He has found just one too good on his last two starts and despite creeping up the weights, he looks a real threat. The Grey One has ability but doesn't always put it all in, and so for the winner we are happy to return to The Gaikwar.
