        Verdict

        MISTER TRADER is 4lb out of the handicap but has won around here and was beaten less than a length when fourth at the Curragh recently. Bahlwan was around 4l behind in that latter event though had scored on a previous visit in soft conditions. Musical Rue was taking on better company here last time after scoring at Down Royal but she's 11lb higher while Boughtinthedark is 16lb higher than her victory on soft ground at Navan where she was completing a double on the track. The latter has continued to run well and holds Tide Of Time on her latest run but Opening Verse looks suited by further though hails from a yard in top form.
