          Verdict

          Another competitive affair but the booking of Kevin Darley for Balakiref catches the eye and he is given as the selection. He ran well when second at Thirsk last time (the fourth, Raphael, has won since) and he's entitled to go well from this mark. Lots Of Love is well handicapped at best and it will be interesting to see how the first-time visor works. The softer the better for him. Mister Rambo is another who is well treated on the best of his old form, while Border Artist, who has won two of his last four races, is clearly in good heart and can also go well. There will be those that will be happy to build a case for Bodfari Pride, and Sarn, once again, has place claims.
