      Verdict

      Byronegetonefree is penalised for last week’s course and distance success so another chance goes to THE RESDEV WAY. The latter found only one too good over track and trip at last week’s meeting and can race off the same mark today. Taopix scored over 1m2f here last month but attempts this longer distance for the first time. Magical Lasso has plenty to find with the selection and Sunshineandbubbles is proving hard to win with though Loose Ends remains unexposed.
