      Verdict

      A poor turn out but a competitive one with Calomeria, Too Posh To Share and Di's Dilemma all in with a live chance with the tentative vote going to the last named. The selection was beaten when coming to grief last time out but had previously shown enough on all types of ground. He has yet to win over hurdles but in a race with more questions than answers he can break his maiden tag this time around. Too Posh To Share was disappointing when last seen out at Worcester when sent off favourite but is nicely weighted. If reproducing his run behind Breezer over course and distance on his penultimate outing then he has a live chance. Calomeria comes from a yard in form at present but this five year old has become frustrating so cheek pieces are applied for the first time so any market moves should be noted. But for the winner we return to Di's Dilemma.
