      In depth

      Verdict

      GEELONG was beaten only a length when fourth over today’s trip at Bath and that’s the best recent form on offer in a weak contest. Buford placed over a shorter trip here last month and can figure while Ghostly finished third over track and trip back in April and can race off a lower mark today.
