        In depth

        Verdict

        Over To You Bert, Laith and Only If I Laugh are three against the fiekld in a competitive opener and the narrow vote is given to Over To You Bert. The selection was a fair second behind Balerno last time out and with the step up in trip looking to be in his favour he looks the one to be on. Laith rates the main danger as he is well in on his best form and ran as if returning to form last time out, however that was in a seller and this looks more competitive. Only If I Laugh is another that could go well as he looks sure to have ther race run to suit and from a good draw he will not be far away. Of the remainder Seldemosa is fit and in form but has yet to win over this trip and with this in mind for the winner we return to Over To You Bert.
