In depth
Verdict
BERNIE THE BEAR won a classified race here earlier and scored again when successful at Newcastle a fortnight ago. The three-year-old is preferred to the older horses Coast and One For The Ladies. The former was narrowly beaten over track and trip last time and the latter also placed here recently. Dalglish and Macho Mania have slid down the weights but look no nearer winning.
