      Verdict

      Lucayan won at Yarmouth in July but was beaten by the veteran Boy In The Bar back at the same track last month. The latter has struggled subsequently and a chance is taken on IRELAND’S EYE. He’s posted better efforts on Turf lately and this won’t take much winning. Come On Linda has placed off similar marks on the all-weather in the past while Biplane may improve now handicapping.
