        Verdict

        Epitaph looks set to go close once more but may again find another too good with FIRE LEOPARD fancied to follow up Monday's comfortable success. A 6lb penalty for that smooth performance leaves her on a good mark and the stable have been more productive lately. Chocolate Box has looked less straightforward lately but should still be thereabouts.
