        Verdict

        The veteran Eastern Racer still has it as he showed when gaining his 10th victory at Bellewstown last week when The Bog Bank and Harbanaker were behind. However, the latter pair met trouble in-running and it would be no surprise if either were to reverse form on the revised terms. ZAUR finished last of 14 at that same fixture but that wasn't his form as he'd earlier beaten Monday's winner Mullacash Buzz over 7f on this track so gets the nod to bounce back. Phoenix Open was behind The Bog Bank at Dundalk but was conceding 10lb and receives weight here.
