Verdict

Burnwynd Spirit looks up against it, but it's pretty tight between the remaining quintet at these weights. One More Roman and Flying Pickets have not been at their best since picking up wins in December and Bengaline has something to prove over today's trip in first-time blinkers if he's to record his first win. Point Of Issue has held his form well since scoring over C&D in November and has every chance, but FIRST BID's recent head defeat over track and trip by Samasana, who runs in the first race on the card, looks rock-solid form and James Given's colt gets the nod on that basis.
