      Verdict

      Sabore made her debut over this trip but has been confined to 7f in her seven subsequent races. There's no doubt she's been disappointing and her best form has been on much quicker ground so she's taken on with LEGAL BOND. Bryan Smart's charge didn't run well over 7f at Redcar at the beginning of the month but his earlier form on soft ground gives him the edge and conditions should be in his favour. Script is very moderate but she's shown her best form on ground with plenty of give so looks the only reasonable alternative.
