        Verdict

        Red Wizard had the unkindest cut of all recently but Bill O'Gorman's charge is tipped to run a big race and is recommended each-way as the TEAMtalk selection. A winner of a hot Yarmouth maiden (BA Highflyer in behind), a reappearance second at Newmarket in nursery company confirmed the horse's ability. Treaty of Utrecht was third in that Yarmouth maiden and returns after a lay-off for Jeremy Noseda. It would not be beyond the realms of possibility for a turn-around in form but he looks a much more viable betting proposition at the minimum trip. Docklands Maximus looks to be a much improved performer of late. He has had two spins on this surface in July but failed to land in the frame. The draw of eleven may count against him today. Rowan Express and Giggle are winners on artifical surfaces albeit in lesser company. Vindication could be the dark horse in the race. He has foregone a tougher assignment at York on Friday to contest today's nursery at Lingfield.
