        Verdict

        At first glance this would appear to be an obvious opening for Red Expresso but we're going to take a chance with BITE THE BOSS for whom market support would be most encouraging. Eoghan O'Neill has a perfectly respectable strike rate at the track and is more than capable of readying a runner after an absence such as this whilst his charge showed definite signs of ability in his three runs last year. Red Expresso was turned over in a seller last time out but he may actually find this contest less competitive and he holds a leading chance. Ratings also suggest that Nowzdetime should figure prominently but he failed to run to form when last in action and may be best watched as a consequence. Red Tarn saw out a similar trip well enough when behind Three Strings last time out and is feared most of the remainder but Bite The Boss is taken to make a winning return.
