        Verdict

        Twice a winner over a mile at Dundalk last year, BUAITEOIR just failed to get his head in front at Wolverhampton on Monday. It didn't help that his rider dropped his reins in the closing stages and Paul D'Arcy's gelding can return to winning ways here. Plenty of others can be given a chance including recent C&D winners Dinner Date and One Oi, but the biggest threat may come from Hip Hip Hooray who had Having A Ball behind when runner-up to the progressive Final Drive here back in November.
