        Verdict

        A run of the mill handicap in which Turn of Phrase is anticipated to follow-up his recent Newcastle success at the expense of Geri Roulette and Moyne Pleasure. Richard Fahey's charge has been in good form over hurdles and ran out a convincing winner of an Apprentice Classified Stakes at Gosforth Park on his latest start. He looks to be the percentage call in an unremarkable race. Geri Roulette has had many many chances for the handicapper to assess her but she seems in good heart at the moment and should ran a good race. Moyne Pleasure seems to yo-yo between distances of a mile and two miles for fledgling trainer, Paul Johnson. On all-weather form, he is still thrown in here but his turf record is not quite so impressive. Prime Attraction has ran some good races in defeat but the handicapper has been taking note. Today represents a step down in class and any market move should be noted. Totally Scottish is rated 110+ over hurdles but is somewhat lower than that on the flat. Kevin Darley is an eyecatching booking. Some of Ringside Jack's better performances have occurred here and a watch of the market is similarly advised.
