      Verdict

      Walter White, Gabrial The Boss and Marmot Bay are all looking to bounce back from poor runs in handicaps. The latter had been in fine form over 6f at this track earlier while Lucy Bee won over a longer trip here earlier this month but finished three lengths behind today's rival Myzamour at Lingfield last Friday despite boasting a higher rating. BIX is another on a recovery mission but was taking on much better company at Haydock last time and this is more his level. He gets the nod in a tight claimer.
