        Verdict

        A few of these can be given a chance on recent placed efforts including Noodles Blue Boy and Bronze Beau, both runners-up over today's trip on their latest starts. Head Space has also been running well over 6f and he'll be winning before long while Diamond Blue isn't out of this if finding a bit more improvement. However, a punt is taken on CRIMEA, as his placed efforts in higher grade handicaps last season is good enough form to land this and Dandy Nicholls' charge will have benefited for a recent pipe-opener at Musselburgh.
