      Verdict

      Coase makes a quick reappearance penalised for winning over a mile here three days ago. He stays this far but PREJUDICE finally looks set to end a long losing run having found only one too good in a higher grade contest over track and trip last time and gets the vote off his current mark. Broken Rifle won an easier race here earlier in the month while War Defender can figure if lasting home over this longer distance and is preferred to Daheer.
