      Verdict

      Nick Vedder ran well again when returning to a mile here last week and just failing to catch Fly The Nest with Cape Greco behind. He’s taken to reverse running on slightly better terms today but GLASVEGAS is preferred over this shorter trip. The latter finally took advantage of a tumble down the weights when scoring over a mile here last time with a couple of previous winners behind and is only 3lb higher. Desert Land’s earlier victory here came over 6f and Bounty Pursuit is another stepping back up in distance.
