      Verdict

      The most competitive race on the card has been left until last, where Bucks and Raheel both have strong claims, but for the winner we look to Mysterium. Nick Litmoden's charge has steadily been slipping down the handicap and having taken on better opposition on Saturday, makes a quick return to the track here and the hint should be taken. Bucks has the steadier of 11 stones 12 pounds, but was most impressive when slaughtering his rivals at Southwell last week and must be considered. As should Raheel, another who makes a quick re-appearance, after running a gallant second to Decelerate here last Wednesday, that was over the shorter trip of a mile and a half but Phillip Michell's runner is just as effective over this distance. A quick mention must be given to Astromancer who¿s recent effort behind Hefin makes good reading, but in a very difficult race Mysterium may just prevail
