      Verdict

      Regarde Moi finished ahead of RETRIEVE when winning a claimer at Southwell last month. But the latter was having his first start since 2015 on that occasion and ran much nearer his mark when fourth behind Watersmeet, rated 100, in a conditions race last week - a repeat effort here should see him go close. Marshgate Lane was behind Regarde Moi when the latter was third at Chelmsford earlier but Modernism won over 1m4f here on his penultimate start. The remaining duo look up against it on these terms.
