      Verdict

      Gipsy Cricketer has been in excellent heart of late and followed a promising effort at Worcester with an all-the-way success on a return visit to the track last month. However, the son of Anshan has been raised 12lb since and has yet to prove his effectiveness on testing ground so is passed over for Gatflax. The TEAMtalk selection has been struggling of late but is back on a winning mark and will relish the ground so should go well but Roller Blade is out of form and Ulusaba has reportedly had breathing problems.
