      Verdict

      FLAT TO THE MAX and Persian Lion are closely matched on these terms but the former arrives on the back of a third over today’s trip at Gowran and Gordon Elliott’s charge makes most appeal. The latter returns to action 8lb higher than when successful at Leopardstown in August but Rasiym has plenty of scope with a recent second in maiden company under his belt. A useful hurdler on his day, Arctic Fire won a maiden on the Flat back in 2013 but Mo Chara is harder to fancy.
