      Verdict

      BLACK DAVE has every chance at the weights having not been beaten far when fourth here last month. He finished well ahead of Russian Reward on that occasion and his latest success came in a similar sort of race to this. The veteran Gaelic Silver won a seller last year and can figure back at this level while The Gay Cavalier drops in class and distance after a recent fourth at Wolverhampton. With Approval and Thrtypointstothree have something to find on these terms and may struggle.
