Verdict

Ticero has claims on the pick of his best form but that has all been at a shorter trip and preference is for Richtee, who gets the verdict over Millennium Hall. The last mentioned has the beating of Financial Future on running behind Bramantino at Newcastle last time and has to be respected, although Peter Monteith's gelding would probably prefer a faster surface to show his best form. Easibet Dot Net and Rutters Rebel both come here fresh on their respective seasonal reappearances with marginal preference among the pair for the latter, who looks to be better handicapped than the top weight. The vote though goes to Richard Fahey's Richtee, who has slipped to a fair mark and will appreciate today's faster ground than he has encountered previously this term.
