      Verdict

      SUNGLIDER has had plenty of chances but this is much easier than his latest defeat in a Class 3 handicap at Musselburgh. He’s weighted to beat Waiting For Richie and David O’Meara’s charge can open his account. Both Autumn Surprise and Blue Jean Baby made promising starts only to disappoint subsequently while Wink And Win has yet to show any worthwhile form. Charamba is preferred to Maifalki of the newcomers.
