    Verdict

    Getaman won at Perth in July and only weakened approaching the last over further last time at Newton Abbot but a good run from Tico Times in the previous race would boost the claims of LIVING’S BOY AN CO and Emma Smith-Charlston takes off 5lb again. Begoodtoyourself needs to bounce back from a poor run at Bangor but Spark Of Madness made a winning start over fences at Perth and should go well if handling the quicker surface.
