        Verdict

        STRIKE ME A POSE placed under Brodie Hampson in a similar contest over track and trip back in November when finishing in front of Gigi's Beach. He gets another chance on his return. Creek Harbour won here last summer and is partnered by a leading amateur but Birdie Bowers has yet to win anywhere and disappointed at Newcastle last time. Aces won at Chelmsford earlier but has proved best on Polytrack so far having been well beaten at Southwell last time.
