    Verdict

    An open race in which DORA'S FIELD looks to remain sufficiently well treated to go close after landing a seller here last time. Her previous third to Malangen, also at this venue, reads better than it did at the time and she looks capable of holding her own in stronger company. Ginjo came back from an absence of over 1000 days to run so well in a Newton Abbot handicap last month and must be a contender if not a victim of the 'bounce' factor off this very feasible mark. Johnny Farrelly runs three of which Bermeo makes most appeal but Blue N Yellow and Get Wishing hold arguably stronger form claims and can get involved in what rates a trappy contest.
