      Verdict

      A tremendously competitive sprint handicap where not too many can be confidently ruled out. And although David Chapman would surely love to win this with the in-form Sharp Hat, the old boy is passed over in favour of Chairman Bobby today. Jodeeka, Ridicule and Only One Legend will also be popular and are capable of getting involved in the shake-up. But Chairman Bobby, as a confirmed front runner that is bang in-form, may just be able to burn them all off he hits the gates running from a very favourable draw. He returns to a more suitable trip today and may provide the best value in a very tricky race.
