      Verdict

      Plenty of old rivals are in opposition in this. Come On Dave loves to blitz from the front and ran a cracker last time around the Chester bends - he will have many of these on the stretch early if on a going day. However, MASTER BOND keeps on threatening to pick up one of these sprint handicaps and hopefully can remain in sufficiently close contention for his customary late swoop to prove decisive. Noodles Blue Boy has been performing consistently well in similar contests and should be on the premises once again while Thatcherite is definitely of interest if putting his best foot forward, although he is the sort who needs everything to drop just right.
