      Verdict

      A race to treat with caution but Saorsie handled the course well last time and could well follow up with conditions still in his favour here. Boom Or Bust and Night Driver would not need to find too much to figure prominently, but may be best watched after they both failed to complete last time. Lady Ward won a seller here on her last start but has never been the most consistent individual and a repeat dose cannot be guaranteed in this slightly stiffer contest. So Saorsie looks to be the safest option in what, in truth, is a very weak affair.
