        Verdict

        None of these inspire confidence with only a token vote going to ETIKAAL on these terms having tumbled down the handicap. The veteran Joyful Star improved on his first start after wind surgery but has plenty to find at the weights and Cool Dandy is preferred racing over today’s trip for the first time. Bellevue Lad is less exposed than most while Firmdecisions finished in front of Charlemaine when fifth at Redcar.
