      Verdict

      Gallery Breeze, Opening Ceremony and Graceful Air are the three for the shortlist and Gallery Breeze is taken to supplement a recent Hamilton win. Graceful Air was a close fourth when going down to Charmatic at Pontefract on Sunday and was a winner three outings ago. He continues to run well and Jamie Spencer will give him every assistance. Opening Ceremony ran well to be second in a good handicap and although beaten in to sixth last time, he was only beaten by four and a half lengths by the well treated Ace of Hearts at Ripon. He will be thereabouts. Gallery Breeze won well at Hamilton last time, coming with a smooth challenge and disposing of Michael's Pride comfortably. That was a great effort and Gallery Breeze can follow up.
