      Verdict

      This looks less competitive than the first division with PICK A LITTLE making most appeal having found only Wordismybond, who runs in the previous race, too good here last week. With Approval left the stalls still wearing a hood in the same race as the selection last time and lost all chance. But he finished ahead of previous course and distance winner Captain Marmalade when third here before that while Indiana Dawn finished a close-up fourth over a longer trip at the track on her latest outing when ahead of Port Lairge and could also figure.
