        Verdict

        Supersta led at Lingfield on Saturday but weakened quickly once headed. Dutch Uncle had every chance when favourite last time and looks a tricky ride but Byres Road was just denied here on Saturday evening and was competitive in this grade on Turf last summer. Mythical Madness had Trendsetter behind when winning over course and distance last month but has been a beaten favourite twice since off this mark including when behind PERFECT CRACKER (NAP) on Boxing Day. Clive Cox’s charge hasn’t won since March but is only a pound higher now.
