    Verdict

    Irish Flame was an easy winner over a mile here in December but hasn't run since a moderate performance at Southwell a month later. Sagauteur was in top form at this time a year ago winning here and at York but has changed stables and hasn't run since September. BASHFUL is very versatile and up just 3lb for scoring at Hamilton with Billy Loughnane's claim wiping out the extra so he looks the one to beat. Vitralite has been looking a few pounds high since completing a double in April while Cavallucio has gone up in the ratings despite being beaten three times off lower marks.
