      Verdict

      THEGREATESTSHOWMAN is creeping closer to ending a long losing run. He was narrowly defeated at Southwell last time having finished a decent fourth over track and trip before that with both Saaheq and Chairmanic behind. Recon Mission drops in class having tumbled down the weights since last successful and is preferred to Charming Kid of the remainder.
