      Verdict

      The newcomer Il Pazzo looks up against it but the remainder have already won with the exception of Minal, and he was beaten only a short-head by today's rival Sir Glanton last time. The latter should figure again and another winning debutant in Eureka is also worth considering. Choice Of Remark and Grand Gold are more exposed, but Overpowered and Travis County both won similar grade races at Ripon. The only filly in the race, BLACKDOWN FAIR, was an easy winner over C&D earlier this month and, getting weight from all her rivals today, Rod Millman's charge gets the nod.
