        Verdict

        BOUNDLESS POWER has returned to action after a gelding operation in good style since joining Mick Appleby from Ireland, where he performed consistently well over sprint trips. Although hiked 7lb for a smooth Nottingham success over the minimum trip, he faces the same conditions here and Paul Hanagan retains the ride. Get Boosting returned to form when obliging at Ripon earlier this month and is respected, although he's yet to confirm he's as good on genuine soft ground. Lezardrieux almost certainly needed the run last time and has claims if recapturing the best of last season's form and Spirit Power is interesting in first-time blinkers.
