      Verdict

      Cyflymder wasn’t able to follow up his Lingfield win, running poorly at Ayr. Ralphy Boy is on a handy mark but hasn’t shown much in his two latest outings, a comment which also apply to Echo of Lightning, Tellovoi and Slemy, who has been in woeful form this season, Fine Example is consistent, but probably needs some help from the handicapper, so in a wide open race it could pay to side with INGLORIOUS. The three-year-old was a touch keen on his second handicap outing at Ayr last time, but finished second in what was a decent race, and with more improvement to come is capable of winning at this level.
