        Verdict

        A tight handicap with the first three from a similar contest here three weeks ago re-opposing. Perfect Mission beat Shifting Star and Bertie Blu Boy on that occasion with Great Expectations back in sixth and both of the placed horses have a chance of turning the tables on revised terms. This is tougher than the race Benandonner won at Wolverhampton recently but Bennelong went close the last time he raced over today's trip. MEDDLING (NAP) scored over track and trip in December but was badly hampered back here on her latest start. Re-united with winning partner Hector Crouch, she gets the nod to come good again.
