      Verdict

      This is a trappy little handicap and the vote is given to Boundless Prospect who is taken to get the better of Flyingit and Davenport. The selection was a little disappointing last time but he certainly has the form to win this and he did score over the course and distance three runs ago. Flyingit won well when beating Lanfredo last time but this drop in trip is not sure to suit and for that reason she is taken on. Davenport was a close fourth behind Magical Music at Wolverhampton last time and he has run encouragingly in the past here. He could go well although his yard are not firing at present and we are prepared to give our narrow nomination to Boundless Prospect who will be tough to beat if he runs up to his best.
