    Verdict

    It’s two years FLASHMAN last ran on the Flat and he’s been struggling over fences lately. However, this is such a poor race that he would only need to run to within a stone of his rating to oblige. What Usain looks the one for forecast-backers ahead of the extremely moderate Ejabah.
