      Verdict

      THREE BARDS likes to make the running and has the right man on board in Darryll Holland, who will steadily wind the pace up from the front on Mark Johnston's three-year-old. He's already won at Southwell and Newmarket this year and didn't do a lot wrong when second to Ruscello at Yarmouth last time. Sula Two has had a successful season but may just be a shade high in the weights now while Kempton runner-up Spartan Spirit continues to creep up the ratings despite not winning. Tingo In The Tale and Hurricane In Dubai may prove the pick of the remainder with Mossbrae needing to improve on his form in maidens on his handicap debut.
