      Verdict

      Evening Attire went close over track and trip last month when runner-up to Shyron and collateral form with the latter has him closely matched with MR BOSSY BOOTS (NAP). But the latter was having his first start since August when third at Wolverhampton and Ralph Beckett's colt should be sharper for this. Corporal Maddox has something to find with the selection on latest running and Jungle Bay is upped in class off a higher mark having won at Kempton on his latest start. A winner on the all-weather in France, Saint Pos has been dropped a further 4lb and may yet come good for current connections.
