        Verdict

        Boutan won twice over course and distance in this grade last month, beating Mecca's Missus on both occasions. But SMART MOVER has also been successful at the track before and perhaps the weights slightly favour John Quinn's charge on this occasion – he's only found one too good in his last two looking a little unlucky both times. Popeswood drops into this grade for the first time but has run poorly in most starts this year. The others have a mountain to climb on these terms.
