      Verdict

      Count Otto has narrowly beaten TOTAL COMMITMENT over 6f here on a couple of occasions this year including his latest start. But the latter came out best of that pair over course and distance in between those defeats and it could be his turn again today with Marco Ghiani’s 3lb allowance also in his favour. Shine So Bright ended last year with a decent second in a conditions' race here and has won a handicap off a higher mark in the past while Keyser Soze slips further down the weights having finished ahead of Beat Le Bon at Wolverhampton but Young Fire has a tough task on his reappearance.
