      Verdict

      RYEDALE RACER was just beaten over 2m4f here in November and attracted significant market support in a valuable handicap at Sedgefield on his latest start. This looks his easiest task to date over hurdles and Malcolm Jefferson's five-year-old may have too much for Nicky Richards' mare Conquer Gold, a little disappointing when an odds-on chance over this trip at Ayr though probably capable of better with the experience under her belt. Toarmandowithlove has already had 10 runs over hurdles and only been placed three times but still looks best of the rest.
