      Verdict

      Suitcase 'n' Taxi has the best form of those with racecourse experience, but could be vulnerable to more lightly raced types. Reckless Serenade appeared to be getting the hang of things when running on late in her debut at Carlisle last time but preference is for the un-raced Richard Fahey colt WESTERN PRESENCE. He has plenty of speed in his pedigree and this won’t take much winning.
