      Verdict

      Wyatt Earp is taken to get the better of Beaver Patrol and First Order in a small yet competitive field. Beaver Patrol looks a danger to all. After scoring at Epsom, he ran extremely well in the Wokingham, a race which is already working out well, before failing to justify favouritism at Epsom last time. He was hampered in the final furlong that day and could have been unlucky as he was staying on at the finish. First Order is an interesting contender even though he hasn't¿t won for three years. Just touched off on the all weather at Kempton, he followed that up with a solid run in a hot Windsor handicap next time. This may not be quite as difficult, and First Order can go close. A winner at Catterick in November, Wyatt Earp has always been held in some regard by his trainer Richard Fahey, and he ran an excellent race at Pontefract on Tuesday, making Fantasy Believer pull out all the stops. He runs here off the same mark as when finishing runner up that day and Wyatt Earp can justify his trainer¿s opinion of him.
