      Verdict

      Daring Indian drops in class but arrives badly out of sorts. Fire In Babylon is preferred on his handicap victory here last month but another chance goes to LAYLINE. The latter picked-up an amateurs' selling contest over track and trip on his penultimate start which looked more competitive than this and Gay Kelleway's charge gets the nod on that form. It's hard to make a case for any of the remainder unless Kolonel Kirkup rediscovers the form that saw him placed on several occasions early this year.
