      Verdict

      Dandy Nicholls attempts to win this for the third time in a row and ESPRIT DE MIDAS looks the one to beat. He failed to land a similar event when favourite at Hamilton on his penultimate start, but is a winner on soft ground and can make amends here. Tombi and Sunrise Safari are next best at the weights but neither have winning form on today's going while the remaining trio look up against it at the weights, though Northern Bolt scored on testing ground at Catterick last month.
