        Verdict

        Veteran GENERAL TUFTO is having his 190th start under Rules today but retains plenty of enthusiasm. He finished a length behind Playful Dude over track and trip on Sunday and is no better off at the weights but you can be sure that the old boy will be pegging back his younger rival in the closing stages again and he might prevail this time. Any market support for the maiden Desert Chief, wearing first-time blinkers, should be noted while Einstein takes a big drop in class. Star Ascending is probably the only other worthy of a mention.
